RT1, you'd do well to look into hunting Minnesota. I'd concentrate on the northern half of state due to the amount of public land. I live in Beltrami county and 40% of the land is public, so access is a NONE issue. If you get serious about hunting here as time goes on, I can help steer you in the right direction, or possibly put you on some land if need be. Drop me a line if interested. Taz
