Another thing guys who have questions should use is the search engine. Lots of info is already there.

Although you can't search WMU's since three character searches are too short.

And lots of people (wife included) call me crazy when I drive 9 hours one way just to hunt. Well why not I can get of the porch with a cup in your hands and the view of the area to hunt.

If you wrote your hunter exam online... then use online help.

Besides, Why would you want to hunt the tips of the WMU's anyways??? The center part of the WMU's are always more productive.

well only fitting i that i chime in as with this post go to triple diggets.
helpped lots of folks on a couple of other hunting sites usually by pm
best way then it doesn't get spread all over the internet.
Usually area and road then its up to them to get out of there truck to go get a deer.
I asked the question and the 4 poster said go back to bc lol
doubled his post count in one fell swoop.
Me thinks it is alias of some frequent poster . After 5yrs and 4 post's why would he come back just to post that ??

Default hunting permission

Two Guys Hunting has a booklet with permission forms that hunters can take when meeting the landowner and have them help fill in the areas available for hunting. I've found that the landowners are open to this and 99.9% of the time I get access to lands that I didn't know they owned. So I end up with more access than I had originally asked for. Then when I'm finished my hunt whether I've harvested anything or not I stop in and thank them for their generosity. I let them know if I noticed anything that was happening that was detrimental to their property or poachers, and leave them with a lasting impression that I respect them as a landowner and their property. So even if I don't come back for a few years then when I do they still remember me. Quite simple really, no excuses for not meeting them face to face and giving them the respect that they deserve.

I can kill two birds with one stone going down there for a little fishing and scouting a few times this summer and fall, plus it will give me something to do in February and march. Luckily it's not THAT far.
