Hello,

I've been bird hunting since I was a little kid but I recently bought a deer rifle, a Remington Model 700 in .270 Winchester and I am keen to go deer hunting.

I'm not asking anyone to give away their prime hunting spots, more of a general question. I know a few land owners who I can ask for permission to hunt on their land, but in general .. what's the protocol on where you can deer hunt? If it's private land obviously you need permission, but how do you look up who owns the land in order to ask for permission? Can you deer hunt on crown land without permission? How do you know the limits of crown land, and is crown land generally packed with deer hunters?

Would appreciate any advise.

Thanks, Boomer

You after meat or horns Boomer?

Meat. Although if I managed to bag a nice buck I wouldn't hesitate to mount the head in my man cave.

Where do you live boomer
