Bowedark,
As for hunting on private land, here in Georgia, if you don't own land, lease land from and individual or company, you would have to hunt WMAs'. Most farmers and other land owners lease their land to pay property taxes, control the animals from crop destruction, etc., etc. In my part time job I'm constantly visiting farms and tracts of timber for various purposes and I sometimes ask for permission to hunt. If they have it leased to a hunter or group (which it normally takes a group to afford the price of the lease), then they won't give permission to hunt. There's 10 of us that has had 1000 acres leased for 21 years. In light of this, are the game animals we take off this lease not to be considered equal toWMAs',etc.
