Default RE: ATV affect on management

I have a story to tell about ATV's.

Opening morning of the 2001 Wisconsin gun season. I walked to my stand and was in my stand a 1/2 hour before light. 15 minutes after first light the neighbor came up the logging road that runs along the fence line that divideds the two properties, on a 4 wheeler. He disappears over the hill for 15 minutes. I heard him fire his gun 2 times and within 5 minutes went back past me, only 100 yards away on his 4 wheeler. 15 minutes later he came back again with his hunting partner, and within another 20 minutes went back past again with the doe he had shot on the back of the 4 wheeler. About 30 minutes later he passed me again going back to his stand which was about 8:30AM opening day, again on his 4 wheeler. I was getting pretty upset about the whole thing when I noticed some motion that came from the direction his 4 wheeler had gone. 3 bucks, one being a 135 inch 11 pointer that I now have on my wall.

Thank you ATV riders, keep riding.
