manuman,

I'm sure in your case you know what you are talking about and have ruled out other possibilities,
but I just want to say that just b/c someone hears a shotgun or rifle during archery season doesn't
always mean its a poacher. Last year I was bowhunting and some jack#$% was squirrel
hunting along the ditch that divides our property and shot about 10 times. Of course, its his
right, and I wouldn't say anything about it, but it is still frustrating. We also have an early
teal season, and you can hear the shotguns booming for that. And sometimes guys are
out sighting in their rifles.

So hearing guns doesn't always mean people are poaching, but I'm sure it goes on.
