Default RE: Iowa land owner

It's to bad but not every person who goes afield (leasing or not) with a gun or bow can be put on the good guy list. Like in every area of life, a few people have to ruin things for the majority. I'm 66 this year and have been hunting since I was 10 and have always been welcomed back when hunting private land. Thank God there are landowners who will still allow a person that doesn't have a thick wallet to hunt. I have been turned away by owners that don't know me and I don't blame them. After a bad experience it's hard to trust again!!! On some of those location I have made an attempt to get to know the land owner and allow them to get to know me, which has lead in a few cases to being given a chance. I'm still hunting those locations. Why is it so hard for those few to understand that you are a guest on someone elses property and that commom curtisies and respect goes a long way towards building a positive relationship, whereas a selfcentered egotistical attitude hurts everybody? That's my two cents, for what it worth!
