hey jammin where down in lodi you talking about hector federal land,thats the only open land i know of that way,ya it sucks i got spoiled when i started hunting we hunted in yates county all over potter and that area is deer heaven,but now the amish own almost everything over there it stinks
my opinion is do away with this trophy hunting crap and get back to the fun of hunting with family and friends like it used to be,the rest of the hunters shouldnt have to suffer for the few that just want bragging rights,most poeple dont have land to hunt on ,so we have to hunt public land,which i hunt sampson state park,which was good until now its only bow and 4points on one side nothing like taking away a good hunting spot for young kids,thanks to the new park manager
the nuisense permit they give out are duing alot of damage to the deer heard,also there is to much posted land,so most guys haveno choice but hunt public land,and thats hurting all of those places
