Those APCO leases started at $10 per acre and most of them shot up to $25+ in a couple days. This happens every year with APCO leases. They only offer a very limited supply and folks jump all over it. Supply and demand seems to be the biggest issue for the Alabama hunter. The state has lost several large management areas leases over the years so public land hunters are forced to seek private leases. Many clubs have very limited membership so don't support as many hunters. Plus, land is being developed and subdivided slowly over time and the supply is further decreasing. Also, hunters from out of state love the liberal 3 buck and one doe a day limit.
