I find it very easy to get on land this time of year. Typically when deer season is over farmers have no problem letting you hunt. now that being said, i don't hunt the "popular" area's. Most farmers I find are very happy when you have success on there land. I always offer the farmer birds after we hunt their land and this also gives me a 2nd chance to say thanks, thus possibly earning a 2nd opportunity to hunt a different day. I could just be extremely lucky but i don't think so. Be nice, be respectful, and maybe even visit a while. If they don't let you, they probably know someone who will.
Maybe your asking wrong? There is an art to it. I have a buddy that never gets denied. Must have a honest face.
