No I bought my farmS by working to pay them off. I never took one cent from the govt never got unemployment for even 1day. I was raised by hard working parents that taught values....something these kids should remember when they trespass on MY land.

Good for you, something to be proud of.
Addition: However remember, while the land is yours, the Deer are ours. Unless you equate yourself to the King. Then I tend to side with the merry men.
Is this headed towards an archery thread, now? We’ve done deer, elk, social issues, land ownership and now Robin Hood. I’ve learned a lot so far...One thing for certain. You PA boys are passionate. Good on you! I hope your tradition stays as you want it. Happy Hunting 😎

You should have seen it when the boys were serious. If the internet was available back then this would have been childs play Those boys, bought and then publicly burned Anterless tags when they first started killing what they called sacred "Mother Doe." Neighbor when I was younger would sit in his basement and have hunting conversations with others across the country on his short wave transmitter.

You think she also meant access to Deer hunting, the same as he had when he was young and without land? Then again, it may have originally been long time family land he was born to. Maybe not. However, he said if they asked he was fine with it, so I see little of her implication that applies here.
Addition: How often do you think she thinks about Deer hunting and the equality/access of it? You can do better....
I should be able to come onto your land and pick apples, shoot whatever the fugg I want, fish anytime I want and hell, I ain't got a well, I'll hook into yours for water.
We need a world without borders, because everything you 'have' is mine too.
She may think that, but I don't. You can do what you are comfortable with, don't fret I got it, but the game and fish do belong to all of us who are here legally. You also got that, right? Not so on the apples and water.
You think otherwise re the game and fish and you would do will in Ye old England. Provided you were landed. Surprises me you would think it correct.... Kind of socialistic, hmmmm Make that elite socialistic....They are the worst....The I got mine type that is....Now the rest of you peons must give more type....The Clinton, Kennedy, Pelosi, types, etc, etc....

Can't speak to your neck of the woods but in Pa, there are landowners who are fine with folks coming onto their and land picking apples in the abandoned orchard or shooting whatever (so long as it is in season). They are typically enrolled in one of the Game Commission Access programs. They are voluntarily sharing their ground with others. Not forced sharing like Ocasio-Cortez is pushing.
But there are fewer of those willing to share than there used to be. Mostly due to either someone abusing the land or a new landowner has the attitude "It's mine, all mine and I'm not sharing with anyone". In the 70's there wasn't a piece of posted ground within a mile of my house and virtually all the farms were in a access program. Now, posted signs are a dime a dozen and there are only 3 farms open to public hunting.

Careful Dale, you may get labeled thinking that way....
There was lots of unposted private ground in NY back in the 70's when I started hunting. Now precious damn little. Mostly because most of it is owned by hunters that want to raise and kill trophy bucks and hunters are generaly a selfish bunch. Thank god there's alot of State and NYC watershed land that is open to hunting. Course most of it ain't the best hunting and you can't put up permanent stands or blinds, ride four wheelers on it, nor leave portable stands/blinds out there and expect them to stay put but it's better than nothing.

Socialism at it's finest.
This warrants additional comment. You are so turned around you don't know who is on your side. And when that happens you become the enemy because you can't be trusted....

Same here, little difference. With the exception that there are some Giants roaming our North Country. Deer are few, but they are there for those who can go and find them.
It funny how city people enjoy spending their money taking their kids to Disney world, yet whine about not being able to walk all over their neighbors land when ever they see fit.

I'll pay to hunt great land, if there is enough of it to roam and not be stuck or told to stay in this tree.
Always amazes me how the country people flock to the city when the local small hospital can't figure out what to do. We don't hold it against them. I'm from the country and now the suburbs. Funny how all the country relatives tell me almost all of the poachers, game law violators and trespassers are from home.

Most would rather sneak on and shoot the first thing they see.

Owning land can be the most satisfying accomplishment in a mans life, and at the same time the most frustrating.
Oh how true! I rarely have issues with the locals on trespass maybe a local kid every now and again on an atv but a stop by his house ends it quick enough. BUT flatlanders just assume it is there to be used as they wish. You are correct I do not own the game on my property they are free to leave but rarely do in hunting season. I farm for the game no need to farm for profit anymore. Deer turkey bear spend a lot of time here because they get harassed on the public lands that border my place. I know it POS others that the game lands deer run to my place in October and do not leave until Christmas, I also know the GWs think they can talk me into opening my place for public use but I have no plans to do so to anyone I do not want there....why ' cause where are they when I need some help on the farm...they are taking Billy to soccer practice too busy to help. Easier to blow into camp Sunday drink a few beers then try sneaking onto my place for a quick morning hunt before I catch them. Fugum all. Stay off
