RE: How do I ask an ole' lady for permission to hunt?
Introduce yourself with your full name, if you don't already know each other.
Make sure she knows you live in the area
Of course be nice
Don't go ask in hunting clothes
Make sure she knows you are bowhunting
Be upfront about if it will only be you or you and others
Give her a pre-printed,in your handwriting your name,address and phone number and what you drive
Ask if she would prefer you call her the day before you hunt so she will know you will be there
Ask if she enjoys fresh venison
