Be glad you have public land, I know I am here in Missouri. Fortunately this state has enough brains to make most public land OFF LIMITS to the orange horde. Hardley ever run into other bowhunters and/or small game hunters on public land. Just this past weekend pulled onto the lotat the same time as a father and son that were going out for some tree rats. They saw me getting ready and asked where I was headed and went the opposite way. Now that's the way to bring up young hunters!
