150 yds out behind my house for one spot. 5 mins to my uncle's house for another spot. I hope to acquire some more areas within 5-10 min for the upcoming season. Then the main spot I go on weekends and such is about 45 min or so depending on how bad I wanna get there;) I also have a couple more areas that are about an hour and a half away that I can hunt if I want to, but I might go there only once a year or so. Another uncle lives down there.

45 to 50 minutes to the nearest public hunting ground. Boy it is packed opening day of shotgun but otherwise is not too bad. Of course I have never hunted private before so I have nothing with which to compare it.

RE: how far do you drive to bowhunt?
 

I'll drive about an hour to the state forests. I have a nearby public wildlife area about 45 minutes away, but don't hunt it anymore (too crowded, too crazy, etc... [:'(]) But if I really feel froggy, I'll drive 2 1/2 hours to the mountains of VA and hunt out there where there's hardly anyone around.
