Found this on another site. Trying to figure out what is wrong with the deer. Seems like they went back later on to put it down and could not find it. Upstate NY don't know where.
My place is called "Legend's lodge" I did a full length movie back in 2001 and called it "Legend's of the Fall" it was all about my hunting adventures. Name kind of stuck.
One fact is when you're gone they will hunt it. No way getting around that. Here is a piece of property that is like you said remote. Its a gem for people to illegally hunt. I would post the crap out of the property. Lay some big trees across the trail and put signs that read no ATV's. Make sure you have the correct property boundaries and take down but don't remove the tree stands. Put a note stating your rights as you are leasing the property. Try to find out who hunts the property because if its people from town rather than a neighbor you don't want them there. If the hunter is a neighbor it could open other doors to you if the person is reasonable. I would rather have a neighbor who I get to know hunting my property than a guy from town who comes up with his buddies. Good luck!
Some times it's all timing. The neighbor in the past is in the right frame of mind when you shoot, this time they are pissed off at something or even just don't feel well. Calling the police is the easiest way out, not saying right, just easiest.
30+ years ago we (8 guys) sat on a porch at the older gentleman's house. He just told us hunting stories for about 2 hrs. As far as I know all 8 are alive:)
Wait to these guys that pick up the crossbow, that only gun hunt, and find out why it is like those last two weeks of bow season. I have no problem with this we will just have more company in the woods.
