Who should pay for access is a good debate that not everyone will ever totally agree on. I got a senerio to add to the mix for what its worth. I know of residents who do this including myself. Offer our pesonal free labour to the ranchers around our home who allow hunting to them such as help fix fence, calv'in season, etc to show them we as hunters apprcaitate they allow hunting. Some of these places are even in block management that allow hunting to residents and non residents alike, majority of the non residents come in, hunt, and then goes home. Thats the extra grease in the wheels. Wheels will turn round and round with out it, but not as smoothly.
