RE: Open land to public???
ORIGINAL: Planter Ko has a very valid question if you live in a state like MA. In MA it is the landowners responsibility to post the land in question every 75ft if he does not want you hunting on it. UNPOSTED land is open to all!!If you see a piece of land you want to hunt you have every right to do so IF it is not posted. We have to be the only state that does it backazzword like that. That being said I NEVER hunt on land I am not invited on to.It feels very uncomfortable and not worth it to sit in a stand thinking I am not welcome. (the state might have lengthen it to 100' within the last few years, i'll have to verify this). But unless it's signed a dated yearly it's not legal. NH motto is "live free or die". Keep in mind NH has a real estate tax break for land owners called "current use tax". This allows a significant tax break for parcels over 10 acres and if the land is classified under "recreational use", then they owner can not post it, however, there are a few small exceptions I won't get into... So to your question... My first thoughts are not to post God's creation, but I have not been faced to deal to with the general hunting public and if I were pushed, I would post it. So maybe:) |

Most states provide protection for landowners from liability if they are allowing people to hunt for free. The exception is forgross/wanton negligence. But then again, considering the how easily people get sued for negligence nowdays, it could get tricky.

RE: Open land to public???
Most people in PA treat unposted land as open to the public whether the law actually reads that way or not. I don’t believe it does. I have a REAL tough time entering property that I don’t have specific permission to be on. But boy would I have a lot more places to hunt if I did!

RE: Open land to public???
If it was my land I would definitely have it posted. I pay the taxes andI bought it to hunt on. I didn't buy the land for everyone elses enjoyment.

In North Dakota if private land is not posted its open to hunting. People, including myself, hunt it all the time. Don't think twice about it.

If I had some land with alot of whitetail sigh I would invite the Droptine Divas to hunt it, but I may be bias!
