Well It was less than boring for sure, I got to our woods, Might I say again Our Woods at 5:45am, And as me and My Son were getting ready to leave, to go to our Stands, I have 2 trucks come down the County Rd, It may see 10 cars and Trucks a week? One Truck stops and pulls right off the road, and 3 guys get out and are just talking loud, I ask them if they were lost, that this is private property, Who The F*** are you! one guy says, I said hey I have my Son with me could you please tone it down Please. By this time the other truck has went all the way around the Mile square and comes Back. Pull onto are land and 3 more guys jump out, So there are 6 guys, and Myself and My Son. after about 10 minutes of telling them this is private land they all leave, spinning there tires and throw something out the window. Glass Bottle? So we proceed to are stands. thinking to myself this Day is Over. About 30 minutes goes by and its starting to lighten up in the East when I have 2 guys walking through Are Woods, No Lights and barley any Orange on. I climb down and proceed to them, when one of the says it the Bill Olivers Land I said Who? They are lost and I pretty sure they were droped off from the next road over and might of even been from the 2 trucks? I see them walking across a Field and now its Daylight and they head over to another woods, and I no they dont have permission to be there either. about 25 minutes goes by and I am back in my stand when I get a Text from my Son and he said that truck is Back out by Our truck, I hunted maybe 30 minutes more Climb down and head to see if they did something to my Truck, They wrote in the dust on my window, We are the Law? So My Opening Day atleast the Am was ruined. I never have had a problem with Tresspassers before this? What a Day.

That is a scary situation. I believe I may have called 911 on that one.

Sorry to hear that, every year we learn of these kind of ridiculous events happening. I have had a couple of days afield ruined due to another hunters stupidity. I hope the rest of your season goes better for you!

Time to post "no tresspassing" & "private property" signs at ur property's bountries. Walmart has em cheap. Also, I'd definitely b calling 911 at the point of "Who the....." 3-1 & then 6-1. No doubts in my mind. Not worth it. I'd even call & report it now that way the police are aware of the situation and won't hesitate in responding if this happens again. And it will!! Mentioning ur son and the fact that they have guns also helps prioritize their response time. Call them as soon as you see any1 on ur property that doesn't belong. If ur dead set(no pun intended) on confronting again I'd pack 1 of those million candlelight flashlights with me. Hold it out left of ur body in ur left hand & shine it right in their faces. If they're gonna shoot, which u never know these days, shots will fired in the direction of the light. And most people will shoot to the right of their target in a high stress situation by hammering the trigger(most people shoot right handed & this will increae ur odds of survival). Sorry if I tend to go to the extremes, but being underprepared could prove fatal. Calling 911 would be the more advisable thing to do though. I'd also be setting up some trail cams out of reach. Ur stands will b the next items up for bid if ya know what I mean. Wish the best....

Dave that stinks. I hope the next weekend hunt is not a replay, and I agree with imnatree I would at least let the police or a co know so that they will get there quick.

Time to post "no tresspassing" & "private property" signs at ur property's bountries. .  I recommend every 60 yards and take a ladder to get them high out of reach... Good Luck! |
