Rexton explains how he got the buck featured in the above photo: “I had taken off the whole first week of November hoping to catch the rut just right. As I got to my stand, I climbed up and had barely gotten my bow hung on the tree before I started hearing deer in the darkness. I literally couldn’t wait for the sun to come up so I could see what was in front of me. When the sun finally came up, I realized I had a doe and her two yearlings feeding on acorns 35 yards in front of me. They stayed for about 30 minutes, then walked off to my left. As soon as they got out of sight, I heard a lot of racket and the three deer darted back across in front of me, followed by two additional doe. As I stood there hoping not to get spotted, I began hearing long bellowing grunts to my left. Suddenly there he was, heading for my shooting lane at about 20 yards perfectly broadside. It was textbook, just like you see on the outdoor channel. I drew my bow back as he walked behind a perfectly placed tree; I waited for him to emerge from the other side. He walked out and I stopped him with a quiet grunt. I placed the top pin a little low behind his shoulder anticipating him to duck at the sound of the string. I slowly squeezed off the shot with my release trigger and watched the arrow fly perfectly into where my pin was aiming. It was a perfect heart shot. He ran about 35 yards and stopped. I waited in anticipation for him to fall. He walked over a small bluff and disappeared. I waited about a half hour while texting all of my friends telling them what had just happened. I walked over and found him exactly where I thought he would be. Turns out I had multiple pictures of this buck on my trail cameras, which made the whole hunt even cooler.”
Well done, Rexton! |

Base Camp Leasing has 700 acres available for immediate lease in Redfield, NY-Tug Hill Region-open for hunting- first time available to the public. This property is a big woods with the best trails I have inspected. They would support ATVs and/or side by side UTV vehicles. Deer, black bear and turkey can be found on this property. The trails are wide and professionally maintained each year. The woods are beautiful, primarily made up of maple, ash, birch, cherry and a few pine. The terrain is a good mixture from flat to some knolls. It was easy walking. There was evidence of old buck rubs and tracks throughout the property. There is a beautiful deer pond located almost in the center of the property with a large Adirondack lean-to, fire-pit and views that would be ideal for camping and staging. The access is from the blacktop located in the northwest corner. The south border is Stony Brook Creek that runs pretty much east and west and it has a beautiful set of waterfalls. There is a beautiful clearing about .3 of a mile on the main access trail that would make a beautiful camping spot. If you like big woods that are not steep mountains or big hills, then you will love this property! More Info. |

LET’S DO IT. CHOOSING
THE RIGHT HUNTING LEASE. By Sean Ferbrache COO.,
American Hunting Lease AssociationFrom your first thoughts of a hunting lease to the second you put an arrow or bullet through his lungs, this series will guide you through the entire process. The following is the second in a five part series of informative articles written for hunters of all experience levels and passions.
_______________________________________________________________
You have seen the light! …you have addressed your hunting club’s expectations and the finances and are ready to begin wading through the infinite amount of information to find the right lease?
Like any “search” these days, most of us turn to our phone, tablet or laptop and begin our search on Google. I think Google (internet in general) is a pretty solid place to start when looking for a hunting lease as well. The vast majority of hunting lease companies have some type of website that lists their available properties. Unfortunately, the method that Google uses to list and rank these sites can be very complicated and most hunting lease sites just won’t rank in a simple search. The AHLA helps with that by listing those companies that are AHLA Certified Associates on our own site at ahuntinglease.org. Companies that display the AHLA Certified Associate logo on their home page have agreed to a standard of best business practices and can be trusted partner in your search for the right property.
