The only followup to bigtex's suggestion is to start with emails rather than phone calls.  If you think there is a possible grey area, print those emails and keep them with you when you hunt.

I ran into this, a GMU that has easy to draw 2nd doe tags. The only public land in that GMU is owned by the county and the county won't let you hunt on there land. I got the tag planing on hunting on the large county owned parcels that I found in the GMU.... only to latter find that I couldn't hunt on the public land..... I think it's BS.... public land should be public land and it should be open. Unless there's a really good reason. Not just feelings or knee jerk no tress passing for liability reasons.  Personally I think that any public land should be open to the public.... BUT sadly that isn't the case.... we should really figure out some way to do something about this.... as tax payers it is OUR land, I mean... they will charge a hunter or fisherman with trespass but give a homeless camp a free pass.... Sportsmen should have more right to access than the homeless not the other way around. Look at how much money we kick into the system. It's such a joke.
