In Sullivan County NY they implemented this maybe 4 or so years back, and it really has helped. For once the DEC did something correct.
Over the last 20 years up there they shot anything. and I mean anything.
This past year there was some nice bucks taken, and many too.
One lease land club I know had 5 guys....... they took 4- 8's and a 7.
Me...my neighbor shot my buck. The day before the season opened.
Scumbag.
Well, being he screwed me. I curved my rules of my land for him.
1. no tresspassing.
2. no free firewood anymore
3. no cutting trees for better Dish reception.
4. no ez access parking to his house. I chained the driveway.
5. no hunting. He used to squirel, deer, grouse, ANY animal. No more. NOTHING.
6. His smokehouse I let him build.is on my property. I knocked it down.
7. no target practicing. He has 1.4 acre thats next to my 20 acres. Go to the range now.
8. no branches, leave dumping on my land. Go to the landfill.
9. No barrel burning. He used to on my land.
10. No conversation anymore. Because he is a lying POS.
SO. The moral is....when your getting alot from your neighbor, don;t screw him and poach his deer. Friggin idiot.
