What do you guys feel is the best time to ask permission to hunt(whitetail) on private property? We own a farm, but I like a change of scenery every once in a while, you know!I ask this now because last year when I was scouting for turkeys, I saw a lot of potential spots I'd like permission to hunt, but I felt it was far too early. When do you ask?

Right now is a great time. The farmers aren't busy with crops. There's no plowing to be done, planting......They aren't very busy right now. Unless they have a lot of cattle that need feeding everyday....

I agree with Mobow. My family has a farm and now would be a great time. Speaking of which, I need to find out who owns this turkey infested patch of field I have been driving by every day!!

I think the guys hit it right Kyle.

Agreed, right now is prime. If you're lucky and get permission, you may be able to get some shed hunting in right away as well.

Since you own a farm already, then you would havea lot to offer another farmer. I'd bet anytime would be good for you to ask permissionand offer something in return.

Bobco that is a great point and I thought the same when I read this... I think if I see some good looking spots scouting turkeys, I'll swing in and ask.Thanks guys.
