I hunt with permission on one of the local farmers land in northwestern NC. His land is connected with State Park land. I was wondering if there is some kind of distance i need to keep from the state park land or if it was ok to hunt there as long as I don't cross over onto the park? BTW, The park rangers are good about signing the park land so it is obvious were the line is.

WEll, it depends.[&:] If you make a good shot with a bow a deer isn't going beyond 75-100. That should be a safe distance.

this is true

and i wouldnt hunt right on the fence line, you might get some stuff stolen[:'(]

No problem hunting right on the line. If you shoot one make a good shoot and go and retrieve him. If it's a poor shot and he's not dead, then you would have to call them to bring your weapon in the park to finish the kill. However, I don't know too many parks in NC where hunting isn't allowed. NC is a hunter friendly state.

Get their office number in your address book so you can call them to give them the heads up if you have to cross the line.

Thanks fellas for your advice. I think I am going to go today and back my treestand off the park property line. The least amount I have to deal with the park ranger the better. Not that I have anything agianst park rangers, its just that i don't want to give them a reason to keep track of my hunty hole.
