Try and get permission. It's not only the land owner that you are taking from but maybe also the shed hunter who does have permission. I know I am not happy when someone or sledders sneak on the land I have permission for.

I will ask permission for land in my area that is not posted whichs make hunting and shed hunting legal without permission in ND. I want to get to know the land owners or should say, I want them to get to know me. If they ever do post their land which is happening more and more, my foot is already in the door. It is much easier keeping permission then getting it once something is posted and slobs are the reason for it being posted.

If land is not posted outside of my area, I will grab a shed or check it out. In no way am I saying it is wrong to do it on non posted land, but if that land has promise, it is wiser in the long run to seek permission in your area. For shed hunting you need access to quite a bit of land to do well. Get permission now or someone will beat you to it. Most landowners are very good and only give us permisson and won't let others on.

Just so happens... yesterday, I thought I could make out a shed in some posted land I didn't have permission for. Would have been real easy to just run out and grab it. Instead I got lucky this morning and did get a hold of the land owner. He said go a head.

I drove by the spot today and took my 5 year old daughter for a walk to check it out. She has been asking to going shed hunting with me. She found her first two sheds and it was a great time. Sneaking out and grabbing the shed would have cheated me out of sharing something special with my daughter. Doing it right does pay off.
