Ten years ago I gave up on the private land game. I never knew how long I would be able to hunt an area or who I would be sharing it with. Now I drive 170 miles to where I hunt. It's public land. Lots of it. There are problems with that as well but at least I know I can hunt and there isenough land so I can get away from other people. I don't think I could go back to huntng those small pieces of property. My hat is off to all of you that put up with it.
