I was reading Wild Ohio the other day (hey, it's free) and noticed this:
The way that I read it, verbal permission is good enough for ODNR. That's the way I hunt on certain properties - or just have a text saved in my phone.
I've always understood the trespassing law (bigger than hunting) is only a crime if the landowner seeks to file charges. If that's the case, just verbal makes sense; yet ODNR stresses having written permission.
Thoughts?
