[QUOTE="KDM, post: 83345, member: 314"] I'm not a farmer, but why would I lobby for giving up a perk of being a landowner?? Are you saying if you inherited 160 acres of river bottom you wouldn't put in for a gratis tag??? Would you also lobby to give up your opportunity to get a deer tag every year?? Lunker, I would like to see more private land open for hunting as well. I don't own any goose hunting land, but very much like to goose hunt, so I deal with posted signs just like everyone else. The same for pheasants. I would like to see the plots program better funded. I would like to see some type of shelter belt conservation program as it saddens me to see the increasing number of them being bulldozed down. I would like to see improvements made to what public land already exists instead of continually seeing people trying to gain access to private ground such as mine. Where are the calls for tree plantings on public ground?? Where are the calls for food plots on public ground?? Why are WPA's and other public lands being hayed or plowed under or farmed?? There are numerous grass roots movements that the public can take to improve what they already have access to, but instead seem to prefer to demand that they be given access to private land someone else has, that they have no right to. I suspect that if the public ground was the best deer, pheasant, and waterfowl habitat, there wouldn't be an land access issue at all. [/QUOTE]
