These are a mixture of private and public land deer. After saying that I must clarify that there is quite a difference between private land here and in the states. a large majority of private land is accessible by many people. All you have to do is knock on the landowners door and rarely are you turned down. There is no money that ever changes hands or landowner tags that have to be purchased and no leasing like in some areas of the states. I can get access to many thousands of acres of private land with simply a knock on the door and a handshake. The majority of other hunters will get the same kind of access as long as you respect the landowners property. This results in very little exclusive permission but that is not really needed when you have access to so much land. The reason we have such ease of access is there is no outfitting for non-residents in this part of the province. If outfitters were allowed here and and money started to change hands such easy access would disappear very quickly. We have it very good here and I feel priviledged to be able to hunt this way.
