Land

[JJames412]

New to the state, wondering where and how difficult it is to find a piece of land to bow hunt. Im from Michigan with approx 325,000 bowhunters and land is very hard to come by. Just wondering what I am up against in my new state, thanks.

There is a lot of WMA'S  and state land to hunt. Glad you found us!

What part of the state are you looking?

Im located In Hennepin Co and anywhere within a few hours is worth it.

Let's see.....off the top of my head....

Carlos Avery is open to hunting, but I believe that gets hit pretty hard cause it's close to the cities.

Pine city has Chiciwtonga (not sure of the spelling) state land.

Dalbo has some state land.

I think Isanti has some as well.

We had a link for the WMA's....I'll see if I can find it....

Here it is.......

If I still lived in the cities and didn't have my own land to hunt on I'd apply for a Ft. Ripley permit and pack way in.  Google Ft. Ripley deer hunt images.

What deadeye said and it is not bow hunted very hard. Come firearm season that is another story. I used to live not far from the refuge. Good luck.
