Does Kentucky have a "lawful duty to retieve" when game crosses property lines? Oregon does NOT allow trespassing at all. You need owner permission to retrieve an animal. In GA, we have a good relationship with neighbors on our lease. They will help you track a deer.

Maybe I should have asked how where you hunt differs from where you live. I'm sure there are folks who live in an apartment and successfully hunt public land year after year. And, like alot of you have said, the right small acreage will do better than 100+ acres. I laughed out loud at some of...
