    You are going to have to walk and climb hills to be successful. Get away from anywhere that can be thermalled at night by lazy poachers from a quad/ute.

    ... or jetboat, even (especially the inflatables).

    The permitted use of thermals on public land could well be a bit of a game-changer, it's not just the areas accessible to motorised transport that can get picked over now.

    Anyway, private land hunting is great, but all the above adds another challenge to the hunt on public land and I like it best for that reason. But I haven't turned my nose up at a private land hunt yet and doubt I ever will.
