No Joy in the Land of Oz

I didn't draw either. I own a farm in Kansas and can't even hunt my own property. Glad folks are having their fun with these draws because it's killing me. I have drawn one permit all spring and everyone drew it that applied. I'll just keep adapting and overcoming until these other states organize draws.

There is something terribly wrong when a landowner cannot hunt their on land during an open hunting season.  Period.  End of Story.

A buddy of mine, who guides in Kansas, told me in order to be considered a Resident/landowner you have to have more than 80 acres.  Anything less than 80, you are a non-resident, and you must apply for the draw as a non-resident.  Is this True?  Just paying taxes, on less than 80 acres, doesn't get you a FREE pass as I understand it.

That's the rule for a non resident hunt own land deer tag.

There is no hunt own land turkey tag. All non resident landowners must draw to turkey hunt under the new regulations.

Man, i truly feel for you. What a crock of......

First, to not be able to hunt your own state with an over the counter tag, is a shame in itself... Than, to not be able to hunt your own land... Especialy for a simple specie such as turkey... incredible.
