[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 4288554, member: 5412"] In Osage County, private property is only the top 12” of soil. The Supreme Court recently affirmed this. The tribe owns the minerals both above and below the surface. Hence the decision to remove the giant wind farm between Ponca City and Pawhuska. The courts agreed that the company installing the wind farm didn’t get permits to mine minerals. Will it be removed? I doubt it. The tribe will negotiate a portion of the revenue first. Currently, hunting and fishing regs fall under ODW in Osage County. That being said, the Osage tribe has THEIR hunting and fishing regulations drawn up and online if anyone wants to search, that mimic the ODW regulations with bias to tribal members. They have not been implemented at this time. The OP, must take due diligence upon themselves to research the county they wish to hunt/fish in to assure they are confident in the county regulations that may be applicable to that county, WMA, or whatever vs rely on internet intel that may be true….except for that one little thing. Contact the county GW and area biologist. If the OP really wants to know the legalities, go here. This is the LAW as written in the legislation. It’s the gospel. [URL]https://wildlifedepartment.com/doclink/800-10-15.pdf[/URL] One can get the short story in the title 29. [URL]https://oksenate.gov/sites/default/files/2019-12/os29.pdf[/URL] The literature one gets off the counter at the sporting goods store is for reference only and does not carry weight of law. The documents have contained many mistakes in the past. I scour the regs annually and brought out the mistakes more than once to a friend that is a GW. Don’t throw that flyer in the face of a GW and claim innocence. Title 800 is the law. [/QUOTE]
