Anyone have any bright ideas about how to even start looking for private hunting land when you aren't from that area, and don't have any network connections from there?
Basically I am looking for an aternative to hunting public lands in Ohio. I live in a big city (Akron) and therefore don't know any farmers to let me use their land. I don't have any relatives who live in the country, nor know anyone outside of the city.
I am tired of the overcrowding in public hunting land, and had a rather scary incident last season with a dumb ass hunter who almost shot me. But I can't afford the 2-3K most places want for a hunting lease. I am drawing at straws here, I don't even know how to begin to try to find someplace to hunt at in SE Ohio when I don't know anyone there.
