Well, nobody at Camp Rip-N-Tear has killed a buck just yet, but hope springs eternal or somesuch. On Saturday, I saw a truck come up the driveway and didn't recognize it, so I left my stand to investigate. It turns out that a group of local hunters had harvested the buck in the following photo. They made a decision to drag it to our property line, most of which drag was downhill, so the decision made sense. When I got to the property line and saw what a buck this young man had taken there was no way I was going to grouse about trespassing. This is one of two ten-points we had on our trail cameras. As far as I know, this is the only buck out of the six or seven different legal bucks anyone has taken so far, and what a boomer it is.

We got a new guy last year and he's hard core.I've known him casually for a while as his wife and my daughter run barrel horses together.Give the guy a tip and he's all over it like a buzzard on a gut wagon.He's a youngster and while probably being a little far-reaching,takes the jop serious.I'm glad he's a poor judge of character and thinks I'm one of the good guys.

Here's an interesting one.There's a big chunk of private property close to me.It get's posted every year but the posters get ripped down as soon as they get put up.Lot's of trespassing,ATV's etc.They sent the one bordering landowner a certified letter a few years ago,warning him to stay off.Last friday,a guy texts me a picture of a trespasser that he just got on his cell cam,asking if I knew who it was.It was clearly this guy so they went to the twp police and requested that they file criminal trespass,as he's been warned.The two cop refused to press any charges because the signs were all ripped down and told the guy to send him another letter lol.Kinda B.S. if you ask me.

Tell the guy who owns the property to use the purple paint and paint every tree along his property lines. The trespassers will have fun removing all that, and the cops would have to enforce the law.

They did purple paint a lot of it.The guy's lived there for 65 years so he knows where the boundaries are.I hope they push it because I can't stand the guy.He reported me for selling deer meat out of my house about 5 years ago lol.I was actually the reason he got a certified letter.
