And they may or may not agree with each other. Different people will have different opinions on what makes any piece of land or any specific state "better" than another. That's why they are called opinions and not facts.
Some people like lats of rules and regulations that limit access on their property and some don't. For instance, ND allows access if land isn't specifically posted. So if someone owned 10 or 15 acres next to a ranch that is 30,000 acres and isn't posted, they would legally be able to hunt that 30,000 acres in addition to their own land. In other states that would be illegal. So once again, it depends on what the individual considers important and they may or may not agree with your viewpoint.
Besides, if you really want to know you can do a google search for the laws in each individual state and make up your own mind without asking. Or do you just assume that everyone thinks the same way you do and will all agree on this? Not gonna happen.
