I could see it working in areas with likeminded leases in a given area. Especially in areas that have leases that are 200 to 500 acres ( rough estimate ) in size that want to have quality deer. In areas like I'm in, with landowners who have 30 to 200 acres I'd have to believe it's more of an uphill climb. Not impossible, but probably less likely depending on the landowners.
