    Just got a call… the Realtor representing The land that I lease and plan on hunting this weekend caught people trespassing on this land we have purposely “rested” this property all fall in hopes of keeping the mature Bucks from leaving. I am absolutely out of control right now I promise you this… If I find out who this is only one of us will leave the woods

    That’s too bad. There should be real consequences in this world for anyone that breaks the law..

    The only positive I can spin out of this would be… at least they weren’t in your stand when you showed up opening morning. I would guess there would be no deer shot and someone would be getting a ride in a squad car or ambulance. Maybe both!

    If he caught them you should know who they are, prosecute!

    Seems like if you own land now a days in the ‘big buck’ country you’d better live right next to it or have a caretaker.

    I don’t understand how people can enjoy hunting or whatever they call it if they know they are doing something wrong.

    Exactly my thoughts as well and with trail cameras all over the place I could never feel comfortable. I just do not get it how people feel they are entitled to do what they want!

    I’ll hop on that bus with you as well Bob!

    Sorry to hear that Bob!

    I can’t wait for the day those trail cameras that report to your cell phone go down in price and a guy can place a pile of these around his land and watch what’s going on remotely.

    These pukes wouldn’t know what hit em, coming out of the woods or better yet they would get wise to these cameras and stay the hell out all together!

    Bob,
    i’m a little confused, you say the realtor representing the land? is this land thats for sale? and the realitor represents the land owner? this is just an idol curriosity question is all.

    This land is for sale. the realtor only represents the owner in the sale of the property. actually the realtor has to give notice to the person leasing the property to set up a time when the property can be shown, (during the season) they are very good about that. they are actually the ones that witnessed the trespassing violation and made the call to the lease owner.

    Sorry to hear this Bob. Tresspassing on others lands is no good.

    I had a new guy leasing land just to the west of us this year. I got to my stand around 7:15 am on Saturday, and saw this guy for the first time. I’ve had this stand in the same tree for 4 years. I go after first light as the walk in is steep and treacherous in the dark.

    So, when I got there, saw this guy just 50 yards away on other property, I shrugged it off and went to another stand. But that is my favorite spot.

    So on Sunday, I do the same and decide, I’m not letting this guy get to me after being here 4 years. So I go up my stand, get all set and tied in, pull up my gun from the ground, and I look over and he’s getting down. He got down and left.

    I felt a little bad for him as I imagine he’s shelling out big bucks for the lease, but on the other hand, he should have done a better search for existing stands being so close to the line. If it bothered him to hunt near me, he should not have set up there, with my stand in plain sight.

    I know when we started hunting this land 9 years ago, no one hunted it the previous 20 years. The land owners on all sides were encroaching the property. We showed up and they said, whoa, where did you come from. We did not get all up in arms, but they now know that we use the land and we don’t get people in there anymore.

    Don’t know if this is your situation or not, but lack of use of land causes people to do stuff they normally would not.
