I hunt deer on private land. I have had free access to a small 160 acre cattle lease in Oklahoma that has been very productive for me and the other hunters who hunt it (my niece's husband and one of his friends). The deer are not big, but the hunting experience is good and fun. I'm from Texas and pay $250 to hunt Oklahoma as a non-resident.

I hunted pronghorn on private land in Wyoming in 2004 (paid $100 apiece for my son and I to hunt two days on a 1200 acre ranch). I will hunt elk on public land -- Weminuche Wilderness in SW Colorado -- this fall. But I assume the poll is directed to deer hunting.
