Hello, my name is Michael and my one year anniversary since I’ve moved to Columbus is coming up soon, used to live in the Toledo area (Bowling Green). I was also somewhat active on this forum when I first started exploring this awesome hobby (also about a year ago). To be short and sweet I took a break from it trying to get situated into the new home, job, winter time etc.. now to my questions:
I know hunting is extremely touchy when it comes to laws, rules, guidelines. Now that it is summer I want to bust out the old detector and start having some fun again. I’m especially excited because Columbus is huge. With that being said, what are Columbus rules? I know some parks are okay if they are local (city) parks? I think ? National parks are off limits. Other places like schools? I always see people posting they went to this school that school etc. What’s the deal with those? Is there a website that has a list of locations that are/not allowed? I know a lot of research goes into this hobby, but honestly I would just like to get into it right away.
Next question, are there any groups in Columbus or any individuals that wouldn’t mind bringing me along? I’m not shy and I have no problem in asking permission to hunt. The only problem is I just turned 26 (birthday is today) and I look rather young for 26 and I know that may turn some people off in allowing someone my age to hunt their land if they don’t trust you. Anyway, that’s all I have for now I’m sure more questions will arise for me if anyone responds to this. Thanks!!
