How can you go about valuing annual deer stalking rights on ~ 700 acres of arable land surrounded by significant woodland? Thanks
I dont charge my stalker anything, he doesnt take the pee and I get a fair few saddles of venison off him. Useful to have another pair of eyes about early doors and late evenings, wallops the Reynards too. Like I said he doesnt take the pee and only takes out what is needed leaving the best. Only Roe, Fallow and the odd Muntjac about and not in great numbers excepting Fallow, where there seems to be some fairish herds fortunately not resident on my patch but when they come over he'll have some.
I dare say some land agent will tell you it's worth X or Y and I'm sure it probably is but you can run the risk if someone is paying for it they then feel they need to shoot everything that moves. There are stalkers and stalkers, they are not all the same.
