Hey, just because you junt private land dosen't mean you don't care about this topic, your lowly state land users because you wish to be, go out and ask permission like the rest of us, don't knock someone for going the extra mile to gain private land. Instead of sitting around the TV doing nothing, get out and ask, worst thing you will hear is no. I have never hunted state land, I always did my homework before season, thus it is a bit safer where I hunt and the quality of deer is better. Maybe if hunting was more of a priority than just something you do on the weekend or once in a while, their wouldn't be a problem. Go out and get it, it's the only way. Never take no for an answer, keep trying until you get it. Also don't complain that your only option is state land, that's a excuse for lack of homework. CITY SLICKERS, not intended for those hunting brothers who live in the city that do there homework, and spend the time to gain access to private land. They did it why can't you....... I'm outta here , this thread has become a private arguement between a few people, hope the moderator get's rid of it. That's my opinion on this take it or leave it. People got to grow up!!!
