Your friend is wrong ! ..... Now the sticky part, when someone shows you
ahunting spot, that is theirs, meaning they found it (public land included ). You should respect that the spot is their's. Now I not saying you can't hunt it you can, but, I would ask are you hunting that spot, this weekend, because if not I going to give it a try. I don't like way he is
tellingyou to ask first. Ihave showed friends some good hunting spots on public land, that I hunt. And it is a little un-settling to me when they hunt it with other people or abuse the spot...As long as your not pinching his 600 acres, which I can't see how you are. He shouldn't have a problem.
