Wow, you have 215 posts, you may not make 217 posts! I wouldn't brag too much about gun grabbing MD, it is right up there with NJ, NY and CT when it comes to our 2nd amendment rights. Hunters do use guns you know. I spent a lot of time there hunting waterfowl and boating, but I wouldn't want to live there. As far as leasing goes, leasing hunting land has been going on im MD for a long long time so you should probably check your own backyard before you try to demean someone elses yard.. MD only has 115 thousand acres of WMAS plus state parks etc, PA for example has over a million and a half acres of game lands alone, then add state parks and state forests and public access on private land programs totaling over a million acres. We can all find a state to criticise, better to point out the good.

OLDTIMR:
its about percentage of publicly owned land
its about can the average guy pick up his gun and go within 10 minutes or so to public hunting
thats what is important to me, both of our states have that luxury. i wouldn't live somewhere without easy hunting access
alot my family live in pa and i know quite a bit about their extensive game lands, in my opinion PA is one of the best states in the country for hunting because there is good hunting everywhere that is open to everyone.
you cant compare acerage between pa and md because we are much smaller of a state. but there is good oprrotunity in every county here. potomac-garrett state forest where i hunt is around 26,000 acres. pretty impressive for marylands size.
