Why are you limiting yourself to public land?

There is plenty of private land to gain access to around the Spokane/Colville area. The majority of the farm folk I've talked to have been more than willing to allow us to hunt their land in exchange for a day or two's worth of work.

The public land around here is hit hard during modern firearm season. I'm not complaining, but I don't understand why folks limit themselves to only public land. Knock on a few doors, shake a few hands, you may be suprised at the results.
