If you are the leaseholder, you will have potential members multiply # of wanted members X $ per member and divide it by the total acres and then ask "so your lease is _____ dollars per acre?" Go ahead and do yourself a favor and walk away from these guys. I've seen it over and over and over...These guys have probably never managed a club, don't understands the costs with doing so, and will eventually cause you problems.

On the flip side, if you are a potential member, ask yourself if it's worth _______ dollars for YOU to hunt there. If it is, continue with the conversation. If it's not, move along. Don't consume yourself with the business side of a lease that is held by another person, as long as the services promised are being provided.

Be realistic and join a group that has the same goals and ideologies as you. If you join a group and try to undermine or push change from within, you'll be miserable and so will everyone else involved.
