[QUOTE="DeerCamp, post: 5196272, member: 21011"] I've told this story before, but in our area there are a lot of smaller tracts (30-60 acres), but its a creek bottom and gets nasty in a hurry, so we don't really have issues with trespassers (if someone wants to jab me about the camera situation, now is a good time). Wife was hunting gun opener solo and had 3 guys walk up on her in a stand a few years ago and scared the crap out of her. She called me freaking out. I tracked them down myself... Sheriffs Dept was useless... and eventually found them entering their trailer. It was probably a dangerous move on my part, but I was livid so I confronted them. Those guys were at least 700 yards from the end of their property line. Turns out they were blood trailing a deer the son had shot (WAY too far of a shot for teenager. He'd blown both of the deers front legs off). I ended up helping them find it. Took 4 hours. But they not only scared the crap out of my wife, but also ruined her opening weekend hunt. She was seeing quite a few deer up to that point. All it would have taken is a phone call or a 2 miles drive to come knock. [/QUOTE]
