RE: Landowner permission
Find one place you want to hunt and that you KNOW HAS EVERYTHING YOU WANT. Let the land owner know that you are interested in bow hunting. Tell him you would love to help him a couple of days a month and maybe more during the summer when you are not going to school. Bring some toilet paper for the land owner because he may load up his pants when he hears that you are offering him a hand. From there you may get other permissions with out the offer of help. But concentrate on the first place and make him understand that by being there when you say you are going to be there that you are a serious young man and that you are serious about respecting him and his property. If its the perfect property then do not take no for an answer, ask more than a couple of times.
Good luck and go for it!
