3. Do you think current law on "posting" land needs any change?
41% Yes 59% No
If yes, what:
A lot of signage is not dated, signed or is many years old and the signs are tattered. Signage should be closer together, sometimes it is difficult to determine where the posting ends and begins - I think posting land should be banned
Signs are not legible - be more explicit
Owner only - not lessee
Get full names, address, phone numbers - post all corners and gates
Sign ever 1/4 mile - signed and current date
Phone number should be required by the owner or lessee and stated that way on the poster, who to contact for permission to hunt
Take it out of the hands of the guides and outfitters
CRP should not be posted
Guides should post leased land with different signs
