Several ways to try and locate land. Advertising in the local paper, contacting all the timber companies in the area and getting on the list, put up a few signs in the local farmers seed and feed stores, contacting consultant foresters in your area, contact banks that handle trust for people and just plain old getting out and knocking on doors. Don' t wait till the week before season to try and make contacts, it may be a matter of several years before you are successful in getting a good tract. Meanwhile try and get in a established club and cross your fingers.
