Hey guys, I guess you are referring to my lease. 1 blind per 100 acres is actually very spread out. Up in whiteville they are putting 1 every 50 acres and charging 5-6k a blind. We hunted 7 on 555 acres last year with zero issues. I'm basically letting each of my blinds go for 5k (even though I paid 8k for them) and taking that extra 3k to pay the farmer for diesel, hrs prepping, buffaloing, keeping them up the whole season, etc. 5k for a blind in this area has pretty much become impossible to find. The going rate for a blind that actually kills birds is 10k and I've seen them going for up to 17k a blind. Just wanted to clarify. I agree, this has gotten pretty ridiculous. Nature of the beast I suppose. I've got about 6 groups interested but not showing it till next week but I feel pretty strongly at that price it should move pretty quickly.
