Default RE: Landowner Hunting Permission Form

Only one thought. I don't think I'd leave it open to hunt this or that. It's hard enough these days to get hunting permission without voluntarily restricting yourself. I say, get the permission and you're in. As you hunt you should be stopping to say hello, share game, offer to help etc.Then a simple, saw some nice turkeys today, do you have any problem with me hunting turkeys next spring? yada yada yada. Keep it simple. Farmers don't like to be having to check boxes and fill out a survey. Just give him a form with the season or dates, restrictions, absolve him or liabilityand give him a place to sign. Most farmers don't or shouldn't be assumed to know all the different stands etc. That should be covered in talking to the guy. If you get permission asking about such things as trimming, stands etc. Chances are if he knew all the stands and how they worked he'd be a hunter and wouldn't want you there.
