How to Find Hunting Ground in Kansas
Kansas offers a variety of hunting opportunities whether you want the dry high plains or wet woodlands. Every year hunters from all over the U.S. come to Kansas to hunt quail, pheasants, prairie chicken, rabbit, deer and coyotes. For those who come to Kansas to hunt without planning, it may be difficult to find hunting ground since farmers and ranchers own much of the land privately and prohibit trespassing.

Schedule a guided hunt. Several hunting outfitters, such as Blue River Whitetails and Midwest Outfitters, lease thousands of acres of privately owned land for hunting trips. Instead of having to worry about finding hunting land and getting permission, you pay the guides to do this for you. Local guides often find plenty of ideal hunting ground that you wouldn't be able to get without the local connection.

Contact the Kansas Department of Wildlife, Parks and Tourism to ask for locations of public hunting grounds or contact information for landowners who are willing to lease it out.

Call city offices in small Kansas towns, which often contain only a few hundred residents. Hunting near smaller cities puts you closer to the wildlife in the fields and countryside. Ask the local city office or visitors bureau who has hunting ground available.

Tips & Warnings
Most landowners require payment to hunt on their property.
Ensure you have permission before hunting on any ground as many land owners prosecute trespassers.
