Hunting Private Land in California

Private Land Hunting in California: A Closer Look

Private land hunting in California offers a unique opportunity for hunters. With the permission of the landowner, hunters can access lands that may not be as heavily hunted as public lands, potentially increasing their chances of success.

However, gaining access to private lands for hunting can be challenging. Many landowners are hesitant to allow hunting due to liability concerns. In response, the CDFW has established the Private Lands Management (PLM) program, which provides incentives to landowners to manage their lands for wildlife and allow public hunting. Another affordable option is to join a reputable hunting club.  With access to over 50 ranches and over 150,000 acres of private land - the Club is the solution.  Contact a Club Member today for more information.

Hunting on private lands also requires a keen understanding of California's hunting laws. For instance, it's illegal to hunt within 150 yards of a dwelling without the owner's permission, even if you're on adjacent public land.

There is quality deer, pig, bear, turkey and waterfowl hunting available in California - and this is it!  Don't waste another year hunting public land in California, make the switch today!
