Hi guys,
Just throwing this out there. I am heading for my first ever out of state trip to do some bow hunting in norther Missouri October 15-18th (maybe 2nd week of November as well).
Not looking for specific spots, but would like to get an idea of hunting pressure in the northern part of the state during bow season. I have probably 10 or so MDC areas already mapped out but I will be going in blind for the most part so any pointers would be greatly appreciated! I am planning on truck camping at one of the MDC areas that I decide on and then venturing out from there. Have a kayak and a mountain bike I can also bring to get into remote spots or use water for access.
Is it worth asking for permission on private? Seems like there is so much public land its not even necessary.
Again, not looking for any honey holes, just some general guidance and maybe an idea of where to avoid.
Appreciate any help you can offer!
