Do not move to Massachusetts...unless you want the state to tell you how you should live your life....they have laws for laws.

I am honored to be near the bottom of the Liberal list haha.

In all seriousness, I really like Arkansas. With just a couple hours of driving you can be in the mountains, the Mississippi river floodplain, or the rolling hills and creek bottoms of the gulf coastal plain. Decent trapping, hunting, and fishing laws as well as excellent hunting, fishing, and trapping opportunities. Probably among the lowest cost of living in the nation on top of that.

If the winters weren't so brutal I would choose Wyoming of the Dakotas.

I'll stay where I'm at. I have not seen anything in other states worth leaving for.


If it makes a track on this earth , I can catch it.

Yes. Yes. Yes. I like beer too. I try to hold off until 4:00 p.m. though so I can say I'm well-disciplined. laugh

No lick'er on Sundays in NE I don't think. Used to be that way.
Wyoming is kinda weird. No beer in gas station or grocery stores.
Walmart has a lick'er store attached to the corner of their store where you can get lick'er.
Some Wyoming permits will allow a drive-up window, in case you're too drunk to walk inside. That's pretty handy, doncha think?
In KS used to be you could buy 3.2 beer at 18 yrs of age, but had to be 19 to buy 6.0 beer. I'm sure that saved a lot of lives.

Iowa's rich farmland feeds those in New H, HI, and New Jersey while they play on public land unsuitable for anything else.

Just cause it is public land in NJ does not mean you can hunt, fish or trap on it. Most of it you cannot.

If Arizona has 56.8% public land, it means you can’t trap on 56.8% of the state!
