What's the smallest tract you would seriously consider buying for deer hunting purposes? I recently read an article about a guy that bought a 13 acre tract solely for deer hunting and that got me to wondering. I see several tracts on land reality sites under 50 acres that are really reasonable when you look at the price. Just curious.
If voting made any difference, they wouldn’t let us do it.-Mark Twain

It would depend 100% on the layout of the property and what surrounds it. A good hardwood plot that isn't too hilly or a gully, surrounded by other good property, sure.
There are 3 certainties in an uncertain world:
1. All Politicians Are Liars
2. All Gun Laws Are an Infringement
3. Taxation Is Theft

As little as an 1 acre in the right spot.
If you’re a common sense person, you probably don’t feel you have a home in this world right now. If you’re a Christian, you know you were never meant to.

Mybuddy has one of the bigger deer I've ever seen on camera at his acre. Literally one acre of land and I think 7 different bucks use it
We will burn that bridge when we get there

My Uncle owns 160 acres in Perry county. Our neighbor owns 15. Both tracts are surrounded by National forest which leaves us all with several hundred acres to hunt.
One day the right woman will come along and the next thing you know you'll be wearing her underwear!

I have 13 acres total in 3 adjoining tracts that has deer, rabbits and squirrels on it. It backs up to a lot of privately owned wilderness/mature hardwoods that a couple of people hunt just a little bit. My son got his first bow kill there, my daughter-in-law killed her first deer there and my grandson got his 2nd deer there. They've all killed deer since then on that place. I don't hunt it, just let them have 1 each per year if they want it.
I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

For deer hunting purposes only, probably 5-10 acres.
For recreational purposes, I'd like to have at least 40.
Ya'll are just overthinking it now

My ponderosa is 11 acres. Ive got a stand site or 2 and I usually shoot a deer or two off it.
Dunno if Ill shoot one this year.
“Killing tomorrow’s trophies today.”
On the distance I like to walk to my stands:
“The first 100 yards is also the last 100 yards.”

One of the best friends that I ever had, who has passed on, always said he only needed a place big enough to park his truck. He was known to be a piddler and couldn't see imaginary lines  God rest his soul.

Location location location. Exactly. I know people with 80 acres, 120 acres, 160 acres that shoot good bucks every year.
