Never hurts to ask

I dropped my lease in Granville County this year because we have a newborn baby on the way. I've been trying to find some land to lease close by and can't find anything. I have been harassing everyone I know about some land to hunt on and haven't had any luck. Yesterday I was talking to one of my moms coworkers and she told me I could hunt her land and that it won't cost anything. It's only 12 acres, but it's in a good area next to the Catawba/Burke line and I used to hunt right up the road from there. Now I need to find some bigger tracts. Just goes to show you, it never hurts to ask.

Ive been trying to find something in alexander county but I think its almost impossible. It probably doesn't help that I don't know many people over here.

I know your looking for private land to manage and hunt but John's River game lands is near you and really a good place to hunt. Never seen it overcrowded. Although I'm sure it can happen.

There was a track that Mossy Oak had in Burke Co earlier this year. I was part of a lease for that property 2-3 yrs ago. Not sure if its still up for leaae or not?
Have you checked Wilks Co.? A bit further up the rd but I have seen in the past available land there. Bigger country over there.
