Jones I understand that situation bud, pisses me off more than anything. The people around me won't hesitate to pop a bird with a rifle in one of my fields at anytime of the year, and being an hour away from my property there's not too much I can do other than fence it off as good as I can and hope people start being respectful.....fat chance, I'll always have to deal with it, so I learn to deal with it. I can tell you this, even if somebody has already called to them too much don't get discouraged. It'll be harder to get one in range probably, but there's plenty of birds in the woods that will still come to a call. If you think your birds have already been pressured too much, just tone down your calling and call a whole lot less than you normally would. I hope you get ya one Saturday.....you better get him by Sunday or I'm gonna beat you to it!! Good luck man

I haven't made my decision yet about opening weekend. I've got a couple of birds gobbling on my property now, but I hate to miss opening wekend in south Texas. I'm probabbly going to Texas opening weekend.

It's pretty sad when we have to go to our property to make sure someone is not hunting it on youth weekend. I surely don't blame the kid, but the adult should know better. I haven't had this problem on my property, but I'm there anyway just to make sure. Of course I'm also listening and filming. I'll be going crazy while in Texas hoping nobody slips on my property. I sure hope the birds are quiet that weekend on my property. I don't want them drawing any attention. Nothing I can do if they wander on someone elses property though. Good luck Southern.
