Patricia, we are further out end of South Lakeshore and then up North about a mile. And offer was accepted that was larger than what you have posted. Though, it was a major player, not Sampson, who I am not really familiar. Friend me and I will give you details.

I don't want to ruin any deals in the works.

Ahh...you are close. Is it the Sampson well that they leased you on or another? If you leased 2 years ago you probably got one of those lovely bonuses. Do you mind sharing what they gave you? My former daughter-in-law south of I-20 leased a couple of years ago and got $25,000. an acre , she has two acres. She is a part of that Assembly of God school area and a different well of course. I have 2 acres and was offered $3000. and acre the last time we talked to a landman. I just talked to a landman from South La who has another offer but I put my son in charge of talking to these guys so I'll keep you posted on what he has to offer this time. As a side note...I just love the Jolly Napier area. I wanted a place on that road but at the time there was nothing for sell. I'll keep you posted on what this gentleman has to say.

Thank you for this information. I had contacted Burt Bowers last year but there wasn't any activity in my immediate area so we didn't persue his help at that time. I will give him a call this morning to see if he is taking clients in my area. I really don't expect as much as you guys got a few years ago ,at least that's the gest of what I am reading on this site. The landman that has contacted us is from Sampson and has gone from a $1000. an acre to $3000. and we are suppose to talk to him again today and I think he will be going up a bit but that's to be seen. We have educated ourselves in what to insist on in a lease such as no cost drilling but none the less it would be wise to use an attorney. What we were told is that the bounus would be for one year and if the well is bad we keep the money without further obligation to that well which is reasonable in that we wouldn't get anything if the well is bad. I have my doubts as to whether there is a probability of this being a bad well looking at the maps and knowing there are two wells I know of in that area. Dr Bickem (spelling?)has a well on South Lakeshore Dr and there is another well near the Rose Center, don't know the name of that well. On the other hand Dr Bickem's house is across the creek from my place and he doesn't have a well on that land sooooo....who knows? It's going to be a interesting summer and fall I think.

As I said below ,this is very encouraging. I'll get the number of the well and give that to you later...I don't have that info right here. Tried to contact Burt Bowers the attorney who handled the negotiations for the folks on Jolly-Napier but he has an answering machine and hasn't called me back yet. Do you guys know of any other attorney handling negotiations around there?

Thank you Mr Peel. Ihope you are having success in this La gold rush.
As a point of interest to all who are following these discussions Burt Bowers did contact me and I must say he is every bit as nice as those who recommended him to me described. He was knowledgable andsympathetic to what we as landowners are going through, he also has land in the area. If you are looking for legal assistance I would in turn recommend him to you.
