Quick Question to settle a debate with a buddy!?!?!
« on: October 19, 2009, 11:31:42 PM »
I have a little debate with my buddy silkwwu...

How many of you hunt on private access land (whether paid or with permission) and how many of you guys hunt on public land?

It sounds like it's time to get a new gun.

Wait wait wait....Mark.  The debate was NOT whether people hunt public or private, it was concerning whether or not there is a difference between private land that you own or have gotten verbal permission to hunt, and land that you purchase the rights to hunt on through a lease.  I say yes there is a difference.

For waterfowl or upland, I hunt both.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

99.9% public, may take a guided trip once a year or so with some friends or hunt with a buddy on a lease of theirs.

Big difference between land you lease and land you have permission to hunt.  Land that you lease gives you the control to do different things with it, water flow, harvesting methods.  You're at the mercy of the land owner for land you have permission on, besides him possibly letting anyone who asks on.

hey, where's Professor Chaos? Anyone seen him?

yeah that would be sweet.... but i'm a public hunter.... hey it makes the dog work harder and be a little bit more cautious to find those highly pressured birds....either that or all the birds get pushed onto private land because people are hunting these dogs that need more training... everytime i see a dog bump a bird and he doesn't get put on the checkcord i kinda cringe...but to each his own  :(

Probably close to 50/50 public private.

All public early season for upland and ducks then as it gets colder we move to private land for field hunting and upland.
