[QUOTE="Volbuck777, post: 5776471, member: 20960"] Hate to say this but I’ve been the stranger in the stand. Not really his stand but close enough to it. I go out on a buddy of mines farm years ago after his dad insisted that I come hunt. They really talked it up, and told me exactly where to go. So I take off one morning, going in blind, and find the area off a big nice green field down the logging road in a stand of mature oaks. As I get about 30 ft up and settled in I see a light. I keep quiet and he walks in about 40 yards behind me. I flash my light and we ruin the hunt by talking about who gave permission for both of us to be there. DAVE. So now I know he’s legal and I’m legal. We’ll we decide that he turns his way and I turn mine. But at 8:00 I see a SxS traveling hard and fast my way. Some old guy stops at the bottom of my tree and let’s me know in the best sailor talk I’ve ever heard that he’ll be right back and I better be gone or he’ll cut the tree down with me in it. I tried to explain but that wasn’t happening. I turned to the guy and told him thanks for nearly getting me killed. He apologized and I believe he was embarrassed. The story is we were hunting on the 3 DAVES. The granddad, the dad, and the grandson. But it was grandpa Dave’s farm and he’s the one that I didn’t have permission from. Needless to say, I now make sure who’s name the property is in and their address and contact them personally for permission. Just thought I’d share the day I trespassed. [/QUOTE]
