Hold on just a minute, DU is almost 100% funded by donations from hunters and a lot of the land they have is donated by hunters. I would never have supported DU all these years if they did not allow hunting on the land, and neither would most other hunters. DU is NOT a private owner, they are a membership group set up for very specific reasons.
I own land, who I let on and under what terms is strictly my call. DU and ACA are not "private" individuals and answer to Boards set up to ensure they meet the mandates they were set up for. To try and equate their holding of land to a simple comparison to private property is far from accurate. If you think it is the same, you don't understand either group properly.
