    In WMU 90, both Oxford and Norfolk counties permit hunting in county forests. Do your research and you can find worthwhile hunting on some of these properties. FYI in Norfolk tick prevention is a must.

    I would try everything you can think of. Post an ad on your local Kijiji. Tell all of your friends, wife/girlfriend, relatives that you are looking for private land to hunt. Never know where a lead might come from.
    Always carry a form that you have created waiving the landowner from any injuries to yourself while on their property and accepting all liabilities for any possible damages caused by your actions ( as a direct result of your actions while hunting or scouting). Better to cover both your butts up front.

    I second this. Best way above all is to find connections. Usually when you have a name to connect you to someone they're more likely if they know that person. Basically all the private properties I hunt on are in connection to someone we both know. Asking in person might be the best way otherwise but now people are freaked about this covid nonsense so even that has little chance.

    What I found works best:

    Waiting until the day you see the landowner outside, before going to talk to them, and never knock on a door and disturb them.

    Having a young daughter or son with you, usually ensures that you receive a polite respectful response, more likely to be a yes.

    Good Luck!
