Thats really odd, if the info you recieved is indeed credible, then i would make some phone calls, and have your friends do the same.

see the reasons being is that i have 200 acres in fulton county georgia ( aka north atlanta) and my property is PACKED with deer. And im the only one hunting it. Its basically a dream place. The only thing is that im in city limits. I know lots of people in the courts that can probably get this dropped but i really cant see what im going to do after this...

I could maybe see if they were going for hunting with a firearm, don't think i'm againstgun hunting b/c thatshow i got myfootib the hunting door. butbullets can do some crazy things and are much harder to stop. Telling landowners that i will only hunt there property with a bow usually betters the situation.

For the naysayers.......take note.

Hunters in GA have just as much money as hunters in other states (wait.....around Atl.....I'd bet they have WAY more). This has NOTHING to do with money. This should be interesting.

If you're farming some of that acreage for a cash crop you could still hunt using crop dep permits, they can't stop that since their ordinance would clash with Georgia's Right to Farm laws. If you're not planting a cash crop on it start looking for one.
