Quicksilver,
Who really cares if someone shoots a deer on your property. Obviously, nobody wants trespassers wandering around, but if they're hunting from their own ground, and shoot into yours, who really cares?
Your kidding right???
I don't want this to turn into one of "THOSE" posts. You know the kind I'm talkin about. I simply wanted some input on the situation from some other guys, yourself included, to see if anything was brought up that I hadn't already thought of. I would like to say that I'm not greedy. I am under no false pretense that I OWN the deer. I realize that deer are freeranging animals and that at any given time they can cross onto the neighboring property and be taken by a fellow hunter. That situation is FINE. Really, I have absolutely no problem with that. What I do have a problem with is someone shooting across the propertyline at ANY DEER not just a P&Y buck. I wouldn't have a problem with them tracking a deer that had crossed the fence after being shot. In all actuality, I would most likely give them a deer even if they shot it on our side, as long as I haven't talked to them first. But, if I've given them warning and they shoot a deer on our side anyway, I will not give them the deer. Think of me as greedy if you want, but I feel as though I'm in the right on this one. If you want to shoot deer on my side of the fence, come pay your money like the rest of us did to lease the property. Untill you do, don't shoot across the fence.
