[QUOTE="backyardtndeer, post: 5656116, member: 16465"] This has been the case around us. Farm beside us had not been being hunted that I was aware of until last year. End of this last season, I found a climber about 15 yards from my line and only about 20 from one of my food plots. That climber set on the tree is looking at my property. The other farm behind us also had new pressure right on top of us last year. Someone setup a popup ground blind just off our property line the day after I killed a deer from a stand I have had on my side for over 25 years. I believe they heard me shoot and moved in on me. They actually have ag crops on the other end of their property and have to come nearly a mile through the bottom to get in behind me. That's ok, opening morning of rifle deer were blowing at their blind and I killed a mature 8 point. We have seemed to have more hunters and pressure around us the past 5 years or so, it definitely doesn't help age structure. We rarely see 3.5 and 4.5 year old with more than 8 points here, but every so often we get one around. [/QUOTE]
