Looking for land access in CT - $

[crappyice]

Did you have them fill out the permission/access page in your ct guidebook so there is no issue about you being on the land(especially with anti-hunting neighbor)? In the ct book it also lists a website that links hunters with land owners looking for hunters.

Yes, they signed the consent form allowing me to hunt deer and turkey with crossbow n shotgun.

Nothing wrong with xbows during rifle or shotgun season, during bow season doesn't make sense unless you have a disability that doesn't allow you to draw 40lbs.

Yes, I was approved by CT.

Nice amount of tags ct allows, long island, NY by example allows a total of 3 bucks and unlimited does, you can shoot 20 does on long island if you find that necessary, the rules may have changed but in years past if you shot a doe and used your does tag your were given an either sex tag, once you shot a buck that tag was essentially done. This year I think they changed it to only recieving another doe tag

My buddys best year has been 13 permitted deer on long island during bow season

I'm unfamiliar with Conn. Regulations is crossbow only for disabled individuals?

During archery, yes. Anybody can use them in January in zones 11&12. However, its possible anybody can use them during archery in CT if the law changes before the season starts.

I may be part of the minority but I hope nys does not follow suit, I'm all for hunters using xbows during rifle/regular season but personally I thing it gives an significant and unacceptable advantage during bow season. Imho

Plenty of threads for that discussion.

Agreed plenty of threads regarding xbows, IMHO I like even how PA differentiates seasons based on flintlock and muzzleloaders, same should be said for the ease of xbows compared to compounds bows and even traditional bows, a lock and load with a scope, I wouldn't consider "bowhunting" the the only thing that makes that any more difficult than a rifle is what? A twig deflection?

are the landowners so fed up with the deer that they want to see results from you? if they are, you may want to take a few doe to show them that you're willing to help them out with the deer problem and not just interested in taking a buck or two...just a thought.

Yes, they are sick of the deer ruining their plants. However, I am not hunting for free. I did pay $500, so I will probably try to get 3 bucks (2 with xbow, 1 with shotgun) before taking 3 does out.

ok, just a thought....I was thinking if you can show them you're helping them solve a problem they may be more inclined to invite you back next year for the same price or maybe for free........once people see they can make money, they may look around for someone to make even more, but more than likely if they live in CT and have that kind of property money isn't an issue for them...........good luck. 

[BizCT]

Yea, I hear you. Thanks.

 

I'm itching to check the trail cam I put up there. Gotta hold out for 3 weeks lol.

especially if they have friends with the same problem, word of mouth is a great tool.............hell, you may even get a TV show like the guys on "Chasing Tail"!!!

[BizCT]

Haha still never saw that show. Unfortunately, no hunting on Sundays in CT, so I can only really hunt Saturdays.

Why go to CT? Your dad just bought some land that's looking like it will be great hunting. Buy that bow from chiefbkt or a new bow and get on the land you bought.

Just sayin'.
