RE: hunting on land question
Legally you could hunt the land. Ethically?...That's a different story. Just find out who the landowner is and ask permission (if you don't, the land will likely be posted next season). That's the beauty of bowhunting (no stray bullets flying around). If the owner is a farmer or even has a garden, he or she will probably appreciate a little free "critter control". The company I work for owns 1700 acres. A few years back we asked for permission to bowhunt on it, and after meeting with the plant manager and agreeing on some ground rules, we were given the go ahead. Once you get permission be sure to respect any rules the owner might have. And if you can return the favor that wouldn't hurt either...you would be surprised how much some venison, a bottle of good scotch, or even a little yardworkcan be appreciated!
