    opening more refuges to hunting.....

    I think this is a good move, and I think what this administration has done to align state and federal regulations on wildlife refuges is positive.

    Pros and cons of using ON-X to find hard to access Public Ground

    It's pretty damn precise in most places. Within 9 feet precise. Some states, especially old states in the east, don't have good data. In those situations the boundary info is less precise.

    What makes a good mule deer hunter?

    I agree with much of the above. I'd add that good hunters also make the time to hunt. It's hard to kill a big buck with just a handful of days in the field. Good mule deer hunters -- at least successful ones -- also hunt in places where big bucks live. That could be hunting in big, wild grizzly...

    What % of public land is not worth the effort?

    I'd call the local game warden or biologist before applying to get their take on access. I'd also see how much Game and Fish enrolled walk in access acreage there is in the unit. onX will show that. If 20 percent of the land base is public land, there are a lot of different possible access...

    MAPLand Act Introduced

    Appreciate the kind words. This is a product of all of the work and effort that has gone into expanding public access over the past decade. Include the advocacy efforts of those on this forum. It is great to see Senators McSally and King, and Representatives Fulcher and Kilmer recognize the need...

    I think it's smart to highlight the parcels that matter most.

    USDA Forest Service seeks help to expand access to national forests and grassland areas

    The inaccessible parcels need to be 640 acres, but the acquisitions could be as little as a few acres to open access. $15 million a year for a couple decades will chip away at the problem. There are other dollars out there too.

    USDA Forest Service seeks help to expand access to national forests and grassland areas

    Have hope, SAJ-99. All of the federal land management agencies are going through this exercise as required by Sec. 4105 of the John D. Dingell, jr. Conservation, Management and Recreation Act. The idea behind this measure is that it will help the land management agencies and land trusts...

    Non Lead Shot Placement

    Aim at the same spot regardless of lead vs non lead bullet. The real difference I see is that copper and gilding metal bullets need to be moving at a higher velocity to expand as intended to do adequate tissue damage. You should be aware of your bullet's velocity and how fast it needs to be...

    Bureau of Land Management Seeks Help Increasing Access to Public Lands

    You can disagree with certain aspects of this administration's policies, but they have been very good about opening inaccessible public lands to the public for recreational access. There is nothing nefarious about this effort. Besides, this is a bipartisan effort. The original proposal that...

    Bureau of Land Management Seeks Help Increasing Access to Public Lands

    Hey everyone. As required by a provision in S. 47, which passed last year, the different federal land management agencies must identify lands with no access and develop a priority list for making those lands accessible. If you know of any inaccessible parcels that have high hunting and fishing...
