Don't bother going now to ask permission, take 3/4 days before your hunt and hit the road with your trusty landowners maps. Get as much permission as you can especially on the big spreads. The afternoon before opening day find a good one and hope he's in the vicinity the next morning. Don't get drunk that night and get early!
I took 2 cans of gas and it wasn't enough, I'd bring 4-6, you'll drive way more than you expect to on this hunt. You can also walk a lot if that's your thing (it's mine). Remember the prairie is easy to get lost on and never leave the truck without your pack and lots of water, even if it's just for a short walk. Those short walks sometimes turn into long walks.
