Expressing personal experiences on both sides of the debate in the interest of sharing knowledge is certainly allowed.  Many, many hunters have these same types of questions about these areas every year, myself included.  This site is so interesting to us as hunters because we get to see glimpses of others' experiences and knowledge; when it gets to the point where the knowledge ends and the fighting begins is when the lock goes on.  This likely should have been removed a couple of times already, but I think I made my point clear to a few in PM's, and this will either get back to informative or die away.

THIS THREAD WILL STAY ON THE TOPIC WITHOUT ANY FURTHER ATTACKS, RIGHT GUYS!?

I wouldn't be surprised if it's a little tougher for a guy to get permission this next season after reading all of this. Maybe this is why more and more of the land in 162 is posted "no hunting" every year.

Yes, excellent point. We sit here watching folks bicker about private land access, bad mouth landowners, post their names and personal issues and then complain because landowners won't allow access. Huh...weird. This thread started out with good intentions,  sorry it got trashed. I guess my input is if you don't have private land access don't apply for permits for areas that are comprised of mostly private land. Then you won't have private land access issues.
