    Welcome to the site. Any help you with contacts since from Ohio but maybe reach it to national level to get some correct people locally to talk to?

    Private land?

    I would think at a minimum $50 a night per person for the housing. That is what we are paying and feel like it’s a good deal. If it went up 20% I would think it’s still a good deal. To be perfectly clear where we are staying is nothing special but it works of us very nicely.

    Here's a common report on any fakebook hunting page.

    Stuff like this used to bother me even though not on FB and never have been. Now I could care less what any one else does or thinks they are hunting.

    New shotgun barrel length

    Agree it is personal preference but I tend to like longer barrels. My 28 and 20 are 32”. 16 is 29” and 12 is 28”. At some point I’ll likely move to 30’s on my 12. If nothing else as an excuse to buy a new gun. I do like how the longer barrels swing though.

    Retirement gift for me!

    Here is a pretty good looking gun at a real good price considering the adjustable comb and the number of chokes included. Plus Bass Pro/Cabelas will ship it for free if there is one of their stores close to you...

    Retirement gift for me!

    My hunting buddy is retiring in December so decided to buy matching 16’s for pheasant hunting. Just used his retirement as an excuse to buy a new gun. We went with Rizzini Aurum’s. Upgrade from their standard base model but not stupid costly. Lots of good options out there in your range...

    These video guys

    Let me ask you something. How many acres do you think the farmer needs to have 10 guys hunt for a day? How about if they want to hunt for 3 days? Just curious.
