I don't get on these boards much but I did ask for some help in getting started on a do it your self hunt in Mississippi as I can't afford some of the fees of the guided hunts . But I only got one reply from a fine gentleman. Surely there must be someone with more suggestions. I,m not really a Yankee, I hail from Southeast, Mo. if that's the problem.[8D]

358,I doubt if where you're from is a problem.I've never hunted Mississippi but maybe you should email the state and just ask.Hunters are hunters,they will be happy to have you.

.358 you may have better luck posting this up on the regular white tail hunting forum.

Ditto to what Taz said.

I hunt in Mississippi on private property, but I know there are lots of Wildlife Management Areas (WMA's) to hunt. I would suggest going to the following website:

www.mdwfp.com

This is the site for the Mississippi Department of Wildlife, Fisheries and Parks. It has information that will probably be of assistance to you. You might also try:

www.msdeer.com

Good luck.

.358 ; it may be that there is not a lot of people that visit this site that has info for you.
There has always been a lot of help from the ones that have help from your area.
We don't really or I should say I really don't look at where someone is from to answer a post.
it is just if I don't have the info,I don't answer.

hope someone will give you some help from some where...
Good luck on your quest.

People usually don't respond to posts if they don't have any knowledge of the subject. It's nothing personal.

I for one know nothing of Mississippi. It would be a different story if you're thinking about Texas.

Good luck in your search and take the others advice and post this on the other forums that get more traffic.

.358,

This might be a long shot, you might want to check into the military bases/post in Miss. On some of them they have land for hunting/fishing. They may or may not require you to be in the military, Fed. civil service, Vet., etc. Hope this gives you some help.

Try www.bowsite.com. They have message boards from each state. Maybe someone can help you there.

.358,
One of the reasons you aren't getting many answers is there just not many posters from MS on this board. I can count the number on the fingers of one hand. Most of the "old boys" spend their time hunting and fishing. Ain't got time for a message board. LOL
