Same here :( just moved into town about year and a half ago. It's been really hard going from a farm of 500-600 acrs to .5 acrs. It's killing me man. I drive 45 min each time back to the farm to run my dogs. I also would LOVE to live back out in the country but can't afford it. Plus my wife doesn't want to, which really stinks. She said she would rather live in a big city somewhere. Gotta change her mind or find a new one!! LOL! only thing she makes too good a money.

We are in town now, I have been trying to get her to let us live out in the country for 3 moves now... Now we are going back to MO and we will rent in town until this house sells and then buy 25-35 acres with or without a house. If without, then we will build and then put up a small barn/shed and build a running pen too. Then I will be hard pressed to move again. :)

I live beside a small country club. I have close neighbors, but I can be running dogs 5 minutes from home. I am about 10 minutes from town. I looked at a small farm last year, but the wife did not like the farm house. :( :( I liked the pond and the black berry thickets not to mention the old grown up pasture. I probably would have been too close to one of my old drinking buddies. :twisted: That may not have been too good.

I'm in town looking for land too, hard to come by at a reasonable price for some woods.
Small Island, lots of waterfront, lots of high prices and I'm a real estate broker, LOL !!

As rabbithound just mentioned--- I live in the country and always have in my adult life.
I've always been fortunate enough to be where I could turn the dogs out and hunt right from the house. Here in Tn. I have about 5 acres enclosed to start a pup and the cover is good enough that you can can run a couple of grown dogs. Behind me my running pen fence shares part of a fence line with a neighbor who has 200 acres fenced for a fox / coyote pen. Sometimes on a Sunday afternoon in the winter I'll take a lawn chair and go sit down by the fence and watch the coyote go by. In all honesty I think some strains of beagles can drive harder than those guy's foxhounds.
Down across a couple hundred acre bean field is another fox pen of about 125 acres. If you care to you can sit out and listen to a fox race bout anytime you want to. Course I wish they were rabbit pens myself that I could run but YOU KNOW that beaglers just don't have money like those fox guys!!!! LOL
I still have a fair amount of hunting places within 10-15 minutes but I'll tell you that never take them for granted and you never can have too many. I have lost half a dozen hunting spots in the last year or two.Subdivisions / developement,posting,leased,etc.

Shady Grove, I wish I lived where you live. I'd kill to have access to a fox pen. I love to run beagles on fox. It's a rush.

Here's a stupid one. I live in the city and work in (almost) the country.
