RE: Permission
Man, the times I have done it i have just knocked on the farmer's/landowner's door and asked. I'd want to meet the guy in person if someone was wanting to hunt my land.I usually try to ask before the season starts so you don't waste hunting time. It also gives you enough time to scout/hang standsI generally wear decent clothes, use good manners, and be respectful in general. Lotta times if the guy denies you permission for whatever reason, he may direct you to someone he knows. I had a guy put me in touch with his mom last turkey season since he knew she wouldn't be hunting. Good luck bud.
