[QUOTE="gst, post: 159446, member: 373"] There are some pretty big blocks of land here in our state as well owned by one owner. From what ?I saw hunting in Mt. on the BM lands we hunted there was not a lot of cost to the sign in box (unless you factor the govt cost increase to build something) I doubt the cost for one sign up station with a map of the land open can be much more than the cost of 4 or more plots signs now thrown in a pile somewheres. If one wants to make something that works, we have to accept realities. Some farmer/ranchers such as myself have put LOTS of effort dollars and time into creating something that benefits our families and friends hunting. That isn;t going ot be opened up usually to the public. Some F/R use every resource on their lands to make a profit thru production. It's their business versus your recreation. Hard to lamblast that any more than any other business owner maximizing their profit potential of how they make their living. So those lands likely aren;t going to hold much wildlife. So that in reality narrows the opportunities greatly for those that maybe have great hunting lands that would open them up to the public. From what I have gathered over the years, most of these people simply want some way to know who was on these lands so if something happens they know where to go to hold people accountable. That's why I really like the BM program. Plots has no way to know who was out there. And yes there always seems to be garbage or other crap happen when you don;t have to sign your name. I guess I always beleive if you want to make something work bad enough, you can find a way to make it work. I have not heard too many bad things about the Mt BM program from either hunters or producers. [/QUOTE]
