This is nowhere

            Poacher turned gamekeeper 

I am in the process of writing/recording a blog/vlog on my woodland scouting techniques.
I am not sure on your scouting methods but often I will find a wood on google maps that I want to take a closer look at, to then discover using OS maps that unfortunately there are no footpaths leading through it, and it's not within the boundaries of open access land. I find this to be a huge problem in the North Yorkshire Moors. 

Fortunately, all be it by chance the wood my vlog will be centered around I happened to bump into the gamekeeper who is charged with looking after whilst peering over a wall into the wood. Thankfully a very pleasant gentleman who was more than happy for me to bimble around at my leisure with Nikki (My D850, not mistress, after all its solitude I seek in the woods not splinters). But often this isn't the case, I have written to landowners in the past requesting access to no avail.

Which leaves me to my questions, trespassing, do you ever do it in the name of getting a shot? As far as I am aware trespassing on private land isn't a criminally enforceable offence unless it's MOD land for example but does that mean we should? England has very poor access to land in my opinion and it's obviously something which has been highlighted in the news recently with the protests on Dartmoor. I'd be interested to learn your thoughts.
