RE: Public or Private Land?
I have the oppourunity to hunt both private & public and have killed my bigger deer on public land. If you hunt public land. You just have to get up a little earlier and walk a little further. The deer I killed on public land this year was around 1.5 miles back in the woods. When I shot him he probably wasn't but about 80yds away but I had to walk about 300yds just to get to him. I was over looking a beaver slough and I had to walk all the way around it and then drag him all the way back across the beaver's dam just to get him to where I could get a 4-wheeler to pick him up. So if you will go that extra mile on public land I promise it will pay off for you.
