Anybody on here lease from RMS?

Out of curiosity. I lease in Baldwin County. Do you mind stating cost per acre and what county/counties you lease RMS property.

Ours for last year (2017-2018) was $8.25/acre. Proposal for 2018-2019 is $8.75/acre. Thanks!

Just got out of an RMS leased club. Sounds about right, although they're one of the cheaper large companies to lease from nowadays. Rayonier is more expensive, plus they went from $85/acre to $110/acre for food plots this year. RMS never charged us for food plots as long as we were within reason on our acreage.

been leasing from RMS in and predecessor on same property since 1990. Our rates are about where yours are.

My old club is RMS land,we've been leasing it for 30 years,the last year I was in the club the lease was less than $7/acre in Conecuh county and that was 3 years ago,I heard they were going to a $7.50/acre minimum on their land this year

Got our lease paperwork from them today. 14.3%!increase from last year. This is after they spent almost 12 months on the place cutting timber!!

Are yall going to keep the lease or let it go?

Ours had a 6% increase this year. Forester has already informed us of another 6% next year. At 5500 acres it is equating to around $2600 increase per year. At what point do you say "Uncle"?

Keeping it now. We haven’t gone up on dues in about 5 years, but we may have to go up a little to cover this increase.

ours went up 10.2% this year.

Waiting on my paperwork still

Came in finally they went up .75 a acre.

Our paper work came in it went up a dollar a acre.

Wow, I guess we had the lowest increase of those replies. Good thing they do a lot to improve the wildlife habitat.... sarcasm.

Ours in Florida went up 25 cents an acre.

Don't lease from RMS, but I'm in a lease with a few guys on Rayonier property. Our lease went up this year too. That number sounds about par for the course this year.

Mine went up 9% this year after only like 2% increases for years past.

They went up
On us. Been leasing same property for 39 yrs. went from 9.25 to 10.25 an acre this yr. after we just spent a ton of money on 3 new bedrooms and master bath add on.

they went up $1k on one of my leases this year

Turkeymaster, you don't happen to hunt in the Pigeon Creek area? I hunted there for years. Names, Jimmy Dorman, Johnny Woods, Leland Simms sound familiar?

I knew them all , Jimmy Dorman passed away a few years ago. Leland leases some land in the loop. I m sure Johnny Wood has also passed away. Who are you OLTimer??

They went up on our lease at the club as well. I think it was around 6%.

Gene60, I hunted in the old Pigeon Creek hunting club for years. I stayed at the camp and at Danny Spears place. "Cooper" name ring a bell?

Johnny Wood is still alive. That's turkeymasters uncle

johnny is my uncle, Jimmy was a good friend of me and my family, and Leland was related through my grandmother.

Small world we live in Turkeymaster. I think Wetzel lives down in my neck of the woods now. That fellow loved to turkey hunt at one time. I spent a lot of nights in that old camp house.
