Default RE: Hunter shoots your bird..What would you do?

Yep theres something else you can do. Walk right on out of there get you a paper and start looking in the classifieds for land for lease.Thats public land hunting my friend.I certainly wouldnt ever get into a physical confrontation in the woods with an armed man.Someones going to get shot.

I learned a long time ago to buddy hunt on private land and we always leave one of us watching the backside if you know what I mean. Sometimes you get lucky and nail a tom sneaking in from behind but you can hunt a little easier knowing your watching 360 degrees for sneaking hunters.After we had that guy slip in and kill the tom outa the roost on us a few years back we always hunt in at least groups of two and always try to cut off the obvious entry routes for other hunters. Its safer and we havent had anyone cut off a bird on us since.

Ive got plenty of private land to hunt but our wmas have some super turkey hunting, its nice to give our birds a rest and hunt the public land two days a week.However if there was a preponderance of stupid folks out there hunting I believe Id quit .
