It’s worth it. I haven’t had time yet to respond to this, but my advice with your situation is to collect a “hit-list” of high priority lands and landowners to ask and follow-through.
It’s hard at first. People are afraid of the rejection when a landowner says no, but you have to be of the mindset that either some people would never say “yes” anyway, or they had a bad experience, or they already have someone hunting.
At the same time, you’d be amazed how the simple gesture of asking, rather than just doing, will please landowners. I’m a landowner with trout stream access, and I’m more than likely to let C&R fishermen fish my stretch, but when they park on my land and pretend it’s a public access, I tend to go bonkers. Some guys think I’m a jerk, but only the ones that take without asking.
Be prepared to work for it however. I spend a TON of time with landowners, before and after season, bringing them walleye and/or gift certificates and just getting to know them. I’ve made alot of good friends that way. It’s rewarding, and with some work, the landowner will save it for you only!
Think of this as a long term investment/process as well. There’s lots of landowners that I’ve hunted on for upwards of 5-6 years with bow until I can get on there with a gun.
Introduce yourself, shake their hand, and start with small talk but don’t be too slimy. I usually let them know who I am, where I live, and that I’d like to turkey hunt. Before they can get a chance to say yes/no, I continue on about how I pride myself as a responsible hunter, someone who picks up trash when he sees it, and someone that will always honor the landowner’s wishes, whatever they may be. Offer to help plant trees or some special trade/skill that you might have. Have a piece of paper already filled out with your contact information, when you’ll be hunting, and tell them that you’ll contact them again just before the season to make sure it’s alright.
They might say no, or they might hem and haw about it. Here’s where the salesman in you has to come out. Many say, “well if I let you, I have to let everyone.” Or, “I’ve already got a guy coming.” That’s when you say, “well, my season is a later one, which should prevent us from running into another,” or, “you own the land and it’s your right to keep anyone on or off your property. But maybe if I brought over XYZ after the season, or helped you with chores ABC before it, you’d understand how appreciative I’d be if I could hunt turkeys here.”
There’s all kinds of angles, and I was going to make a post about this earlier but forgot.
Either way, I think it’s worth your time and effort, in that you might find some land you’ll hunt for many years to come.
Good luck!!!

and i don’t know how to even start….
He said there for sure is one guy coming to hunt and maybe another as well
