The guy that  made the cut must be a real piece of work !

[First-light]

So silly over what?? You can get the message across a much better and safer way like…..talking.

[Paula]

That is terrible!!

[stoneam2006]

That's BS

[Nomad]

Some what common . I have friend who has had a guys take a chain saw to his trees that have stands in them and drop them that's bad enough but..

One morning while climbing down he saw that the tree he climbed up in the dark was cut most of the way trough !

Now turns out he had a camera on a near by scrape, it caught a guy walking past with a chain saw, off camera you,hear it start and then hear cutting .

DEC said not enough evidence !

Maybe not for Johnny law , but those who know how,the game is played it sure is.

I believe this is only the tip of what a hunter would do to another hunter in the name of hunting. I think the boundry is wide when it comes to this.

[DirtTime]

Why you all so upset?

Haven't more the one of you told others to sabotage a trespassers stand? Well, this is what people do when you tell them acting like an a$$ is OK. That said........

 

 

This sucks. I hope the jerk that did it does at least 5 years, no parole, in a max Fed joint. Maybe his 'cell mate' will drive the right way to do things home.

[Nomad]

What in the wide world of sports are you talking about ?

I can't see anyone who replied encouraging sabotaging of someone's stand .

You're kidding right?

You better reread some of the threads about trespassing.

[Nomad]

Must have missed that. Still can't see Paula , wny,, fast Eddie , first light ,stone,being in favor of sabotaging a persons stand .

Remove it sure.

Can you provide a link to,their comments ? I did a search but could not find any.

I'm a passionate hunter and outdoorsman and I guard my property, but that is well beyond what reasonable and civilized people do, no matter how angry they may be.

[stoneam2006]

Absolutely if you are sure it's on your land it would be on the ground with a note saying don't come back if found again maybe a sign with go to dec to pick up....not trying to cause injury to anyone

[nyantler]

I think there is also an issue that this guy cut the tree without knowing the property boundaries... getting upset with somebody really for no reason... It is always better to confront another hunter respectfully face to face first... usually things can be worked out without getting stupid... people need to wait until there really is a problem instead of creating one before one exists.

[greg54]

That guy is a real jerk

[Pygmy]

There are people who are only alive because it is illegal to kill them.

It would be just to take that scumbag out behind the barn and put one behind his ear.

[G-Man]

I have cut down trees with stands in them,after I had removed the stand and placed on trail to stand site next to my posted sign(my name and number on it),only to return a week later and find the stand back in the same tree. Thus the stand and the tree were removed. To set a trap,or sabotage a tree or stand is just wrong and criminal.

[growalot]

Really??? A citation...That SOB should be going to court with attempted murder period...

Larry..ya just know I have to ask...." not enough proof"...region 8??

Sounds like the DEC to me. I'm often baffled by the lack of DEC and Police cooperation when trying to stop trespassing. No excuse I suppose but no wonder people take things in their own hands. 

[WNYBuckHunter]

Ive pulled stands, piled brush at the bottom of them, left notes, but i would never ever sabotage one or cause a condition where someone could get hurt. I do know the threads Rob is talking about though. Read that stuff on here every year.

Your nuts. There have been comments on here to remove a stand and leave a note. Never is there any advice to hurt someone on purpose.

[Doc]

For some reason we always want to believe that just because somebody participates in things like hunting, that they are all up-standing wonderful people. Well, here is just another indication that hunters represent the same cross-section of people that any other group does. And yes, we have our fair share of wackos too. It's something to stay aware of when dealing with other hunters. People have shot each other, on purpose, over hunting issues. It's unfortunate, but simply the way some people are. We have not yet figured out how to eliminate the weirdos from our ranks and probably never will.

[GreeneHunter]

I've removed Tree Stands that were setup on my property without permission and left a note with cell phone number , the hunter called me - we met discussed things - he was a bow hunter I am not (just tried it last year) we made a deal .  I signed a permission slip for him and another to bow hunt my property - bow season only and at the end of the bow season and before rifle opens he tells me what he saw or shot and everybody's happy . After Rifle closes I report the same to him and he's back at it . Never has the thought of causing harm to anyone come up !

[Nomad]

Grow, I'd only be guessing, but I work with the guy here in Roch. He lives in a close suburb, my guess would be reg. 8.

Since to sawing and starting of saw took place of cam. ( it was set to video) no charges....

[growalot]

Thanks....Region 8 seems to have that as their montra...I have delt with 9...They were great and didn't have a problemdoing their best to take care of situations and have called 7 to come out...because Region 8 couldn't be bothered...then got a call from officer stating what they did and how it was handled....Noticed guys here mention the same thing I have heard and ppl I know from Region 8 ...Can you prove it...Get pictures and I love this one...Well you know they'er just going to lie anyways.....I miss John Hill....
