Yep, my brother-in-law and sister live in Lewis Center and are in a fairly populated part of that area. Houses are less than an acre from each other.

They have deer in their yard all the time. They wouldn't do anything about it if they could. But if it was me, I'd have to draw back on one of those frickers. Then I'd just go wherever it laid down, knock on the land owners door and say, "Can I have that deer?"

It's not like here in Louisiana. I'm from So. Ohio and usually you can knock on the door and ask the person to hunt. Most of the time if you kill something, you give them some of the meat.

You can get licenses over the counter. Cause I'm going back home to take my son on a few rabbit and squirrel hunts and I buy my out of site license at Kit Carsons over the counter.

Note: I'm not saying hunting in Louisiana is awful in any sense. It's just different and something I'm not use to. Cause we don't do private leases or hunt camps. We just know people and knock on doors.

It's not pressured and like I said before. Most people would let you hunt if you just ask and share (if that want it). I hope this helps some. If you need more info, please ask.

yup, unless they are hunters and dont want you getting the buck they have had an eye on.

Also, I just looked it up to be sure, but they also authorize "urban" hunting, as long as you comply with local weapons laws

quote:

Hunters may take up to 6 antlerless deer within the Urban Deer Units using either an antlerlessdeer permit or either-sex deer permit.

Antlerless deer taken within the Urban Deer Units are tallied independently and will not count towards your deer bag limits

FWIW, Ohio is overrun with deer. Feel free to come up here and poach as many as you want. If you shoot a buck and don't like his rack, just let him lay and go shoot another one.




Sounds like you might know someone with a "problem." Know anyone that has some land that needs someone to take care of their "problem."

I agree slick. I would even be willing to trade a weekend fishing trip all expensed paid if someone would agree to let Slick and I hunt exterminate a few of their deer.

I still need to meet up with you and exterminate some sac-au-bass-eyes.

I have been hammering the sac au lait here lately. It is the best year I have ever had on sac au lait.

Does that even out?

Fishing for hunting?

Hmmm, I'd be willing to make that deal too.

All expense paid, lodging(dockside), 2-day saltwater fishing trip in exchange for weekend buck slaughter.

I have made many friends and hunted some awesome land for that trade. What we take for granted in fishing is what many other people take for granted in hunting.

that's got to be true.

I'm guessing I'd feel the same kind of pressure a charter captain might feel to put said person on some specs/reds.

I have been fotunate and picked pretty good times and done excellent. I know a lot of the charter captains down here very well so that helps with networking and knowing where the fish are. I was also able to get a shrimp boat to let me pull up to them and let the guest watch them pick up there nets. I took some frogging and look at the alligators at night. The whole experience is amazing to people who have never experienced it.

I am jealous. I went to Canton 2 weeks ago and it is beautiful. I was not able to explore a lot as I was on a business trip but it looked like prime hunting real estate.

That is a damn good deal. I go on a bow hunt every other year to South Dakota (black hills) and it is amazing the amount of animals they have up there. It is all public land and you can literaly drive all day and not see another person. No hunting pressure at all and deer are everywhere. I wish I could move there for the fall.

Ohio can turn out some great looking deer. The problem I saw a number of years ago is the local people are really fond of driving deer. I have no real opinion on deer drives but I will say that pushing bush generally doesnt yield a lot of trophy deer. 1,500 acres could certainly hold a monster if its been managed and the neighboring properties manage deer as well.
