Local Outreach

If you live in a small town, the first stop is to reach out to friends, family, friends of friends, friends of family, etc. Your hunting buddies and associates will always have solid leads and tips for your next shoot. For best results, immerse yourself in your local hunting community.

Another great person to talk to? Your local game warden. More often than not, they will have some great information for you. Always check with the state’s Game & Fish Commission when looking for land.

Maps & Apps

Fortunately, we live in a world with phones and satellite maps, making public land fairly easy to find and available to anyone. Apps like onX Hunt, HuntStand, and HuntWise have features and tools like 3D mapping, best times and locations, markers, rut maps, and crop history to make finding prime hunting land a breeze.

Farmers & Government

They’re helping to control the population, decrease any predators in the area, and slim down the threats those predators bring to crops.And of course, don’t forget sites like recreation.gov and US Fish & Wildlife for national wildlife refuges.
