And like a said if we where all MASTER HUNTERS like some claim to be ( not saying you just by looking at some of the posts) the deer would just fall over dead with every shot. But we all know that just doesn't happen all the time.

It is pretty bad when a landowner feels the need to group everyone in the same pot.

As I said before if a person will take the time to ask that shows me they respect my property.

I will say owning hunting ground can be a pain at times but that mean I have to be an ass all the time?? NO!!

At the end of the day it's YOUR land and you can do what you want. But what I have a problem with is the reasoning of some landowners that if one thing goes wrong everyone is a bad hunter with no ethics, which isn't the case.

And is also seems the main problem the landowners are complaining about is public hunting ground that boarders theres. Well some don't have the means to buy or lease hunting ground and they have no choice but to hunt public ground. Should they be looked down on just for that simple fact??? I just seems these landowners what the public ground to be private casue they boarder it.

This is just a topic that most are going to have to agree to disagree because there is no completely right or wrong answer with a lot of grey areas.
