Soonershooter. Just count your blessings that you weren't shot. Slobs like those guys are the reason I got shot in the back last year on private land with a 12 guage slug. I wasn't as lucky as you and just reading your story brought the whole image of what happened back vividly. If you ever find yourself in a situation that you feel is unsafe again, get yourself out of it as quickly as you can, No deer is worth taking a chance of you getting shot. Hopefully, you can find another place to hunt so your season won't be a total loss. If you had a written contract for exclusive use, get a lawyer and sue the jerks. What they did is unethical and just plain not right. I hate most lawsuits, but sometimes hitting them inthe pocket is the only way to make people understand the seriousness of a certain situation. Good luck to you and keep your good senses! Looks like you have a lot more sense then they do.
