Default RE: Baiting ticket?

Teedub,

You are preaching to the choir here in terms of the probable cause issue. However, that is the way it is. There are plenty of court cases out there that support a GW's right to enter private property just because they know someone is hunting there.

And yes, there are plenty of fine GW's out there. I have only been checked once in my life while hunting and the guy was really cool and we ended up standing there talking for quite a while after he checked me out. However, my father and cousin were once stopped coming out the woods after cutting wood and were forced to unload a bunch of the wood to demonstrate to the GW that they did not have wild game hid under it. So, there are some out there who are just looking for any excuse to hassle people.
