RE: pa. game com. and 4 wheelers
most deer around this county are so use to atv's they hardly even raise a tail. i chase more deer than any atv does when we are haying the fields. alot of fawns come up out the high grass when we are cutting. but they just trot to one of the wood lines and lay back down. i not here to defend any kid that is damaging someone's land. if we see it happen we are on them like a fly on sh**. but it does not happen that much. there are six families in this valley and we pretty much own all of it. and it is open to every hunter and every atv. the only group of people that i limit on the land are logging companys. they robbed trees and left the area a mess. they did not even clear the roads that were open when they started. there are four owners to the north and one to the south. the one on the south side has a gas station/food stop so we see a lot of traffic down a couple of the dirt roads. but you know alot of the riders are older guys just out enjoying the outdoors. for example every wednesday night there is a group of guys from one of the local plants that get together and ride threw to fuel up at the station. then they come back across and ride to some place to have dinner. what can they possibly hurt. some of you guys are trying to make people believe that every atv rider is a kid just looking for some land to damage. this is far from the case. around here the woods are to thick to just ride threw 99.99% of the people just ride down one of the dirt roads. as for liablity of the land. pa lawmakers have passed a law to protect the land owners from liablity from anyone crossing their land. we do not even have to post land anymore. i know i went over board here on the atv's but i think it is time to question some of the practices of the PGC. some of you guys came up with some good points. but i will always believe it is foolish to chase a kid for using a dirt road.
