Reply to comment by Content_Idea in Would anyone be willing to take me deer hunting this season? by StrongPlan3

Valid point and no offense taken. Working on doing my hunters safety course now.

I personally would try to find someone with private land (if you can.) In my experience with public land people don’t know what they’re doing and you won’t see a deer a mile away because they’ve run them off.

I have family in Arkansas that have 5 acres with deer that behave like they've never seen a human before. Should I give that a go?

Fyi...over $100 for Arkansas non resident license. You will need to finish the safety course to purchase.

Fees here:

Thank you so much!

It’s more that on public land you have a higher chance of the deer being spooked from other hunters, but if you have the money to get an Arkansas license I would give it a shot on private land!

Awesome! They're begging me to come out. So I might as well 🤷‍♂️
