Can the renter use the owners name and address?
Not to my knowledge. When you look in Onix it gives the owner and their tax address. Then if you scroll way down to the bottom you will see who posted it. I would venture to guess on owners from out of state it’s 95% posted by the renter. Which should not be allowed. That would open up a shit ton of land. They should not be allowed to post with signs either.

I’ve posted this before, it’s so interesting the difference in culture and how the posting has changed hunting there. Growing up in SD where you had to have permission regardless, I’ve always been uneasy hunting non posted land while hunting ND. I do agree these changes were meant to effectively push the system to allow more land to be locked up, likely from a property rights angle. Which I understand too, I don’t own the wildlife but I do own the land right? Sure sucks it’s all on technology now too.

In SD the erosion of acccess has occurred too. Pay to play big game and pheasants are the norm in many areas. But the bigger issue is just a general disconnect of hunters and the landowners. Small town guys still have opportunities but if you pull in with a city license plate and knock on the door you’re probably getting denied. And thus public land pressure is crazy.

Hunting is declining just on access alone. Sad.

Problem is one side holds all the leverage and threatens to take their ball and go home any time access is brought up.

Things used to be so different, at least from statehood through the 80’s, maybe 90’s. Farms were small. Most raised cattle and/or hogs as well. They employed a fair number of locals. They spent a lot of time with the town folk and had an excellent/close relationship with the town folks. Most the town folks were related to these farmers/ranchers. It was a very close knit relationship. Then when machinery got bigger, farmers took on more land, it got very cut throat due to greed etc. The big equipment allowed them to do more with far less full time help. So then very few if any town folks worked on the farm. The number of kids people had plummeted which caused farmers to spend less time at school functions etc.

Then farm programs became much more lucrative which drove the greed and entitlement attitude through the roof. Farmers used to have just enough equipment to get by and get the job done. They drove pickups to town that they likely may have to fix before they could make it home. The town folks had a lot of respect for people like that. Now they buy million dollar combines on a near yearly basis, hoards of other high dollar equipment and drive $100,000 pickups to town for groceries all the while piss and moan about not making any money or the price of grain is too low of the farm program isn’t good enough etc etc. the arrogance just continues to grow. Now they’re in the media squawking because they tying ag is starting to lose their voice in ND lol. They do anything possible to prevent others from hunting, the hunting heritage in ND is of no concern to them. They got theirs. So many have such an elitist me over you attitude now that it’s sickening.
