Well it sounds like your really going to kill any expectations of getting anything in the Greewood area with that statement. WOW Not good news IF what you are saying is true. SO how does one find out for sure then?? Sure are a lot of folks in Greewood trying to lease. Guess we will see. Anyone else have any info on this 1950s lease stuff? A lot of folks are going to be sick if this is true.
A good friend of mine worked with his neighbors in Stonewall and rallied together to unify. They were about to sign for 6000/acre up front/30 royalty but stopped short. They were approached by an investment banker and he said he could get them 15000/acre and 27 royalty.
Hoping that if we in Southern Hills do as good a job unifying maybe we can get his numbers.
In Sabine, now hearing $15,000/acre......there and in far Southern DeSoto.....apparently, the Shell wells are becoming public knowledge of having "confirmed the extension southward" at least to their latest wells in northern Sabine Parish.
Last night a meeting was called of sabine landowners, by a group of attorney's charging 6% only on the lease bonus, they said they said they had pooled a previous package together of Sabine land and got $13,000 per acre. This seems to be in line with your thread.
