This is a very touchy subject for me,I' am in the agricultural buisness.I know farming and ranching don' t make what it used to,with inflation and cost of production.
The farmer and rancher have the right to lease their land,you are right the own it.They should only have the right lease out for domestic heards or farming,I and every other Sportman that hunts has already paid for their right to hunt the animals on the land.
If they donot allow public hunting I think a luxery tax should be imposed,just like timber and oil.Why cuase we pay for them and Fish and Game agencies to monitor them.
If the eastener,or the out of stater that wan' ts to hunt and not have crowds,he should buy the land and pay the taxes himself,that way he can look me in the eye and tell me how much he charges for a trespass fee and I will show him what I think.
This is my own opion and donot force my veiws on anyone else.BBJ
