Hunting New Hampshire...your thoughts?
Being a hunter just like the rest of you, I was wondering if I'm the only one who thinks this way.....
Here in NH the fish & game have written clearly in the hunting reg's that all private land is open to hunting...period. I think this is crazy...who are they to tell the public ...oh yea it's ok... it's private but help yourself! It also states that we should respect private land. Now that’s staying on the fence!
I don't understand how walking into "private property" is any different than walking into someone's house...it's theirs not mine
I'm a land owner of 40 acres and I don't hunt my own property...reason being I just don't find hunting on my property to be any challenge...I know how they travel and where to find them....I have built food plots and trying to bring other game into the property such as wood**** and grouse. So I in turn have posted my property....fellow hunters have torn down my signs on a regular basis! I speak with no one so no one can say a good thing or a bad thing about us. No one has ever asked permission to hunt.
In 99.9% of the cases if I wanted to hunt a piece of property I would seek permission first...I just feel it's the right thing to do.
I think the state is dead wrong and I think you should seek permission before you enter private property...we have enough hurdles with organizations like PETA...why create something more?
