Im so upset. This week I had a call from some joker who got permission to hunt the 250 acres I exclusively hunt on. This guy shows up at my door and leaves a message with my wife wanting intel on the property because he keeps kicking deer out every time he steps foot in there. I was so pissed that I immediately called the guy and let him know how I felt about the situation. For the past eight years I have been in pursuit of my dream buck(s), and this place holds them. Its also no secret that when the shooting starts this is where they want to be.
I told this interloper that I have been hunting there for years and a new comer wasnt welcomed. This is a great set up and I didnt need him coming in and shooting small deer, Im after 3.5 or better. In addition I know this guy has multiple places to hunt (probably not as good as this place), so why does he feel the need to hunt at my place.
The guy couldnt understand my outrage. I asked him how he would feel if I showed up at his place, or his Oakland Co spot. He then had the nerve to invite to hunt HIS place if I wanted. He gave some lame excuse about not owning the Oakland Co property so he couldnt invite me.
I was pretty up front with the guy, telling him that I was going to have a talk with the property owner regarding this situation. I mean, I do a valuable service for the owner. I post the property and have kicked people off in the past. If I wasnt there someone would be shooting deer. I know this guy has asked for years and has been rebuffed. I dont understand the property owners change of heart.
To illustrate my point I had the guy come to my house to see the deer that had been taken off the property. Im sure he was impressed by the huge buck that I bought from the neighbor kid and mounted or equally my equally impressive 10 point (which I found dead on property) mount.
This guy came off real polite, but I know hes scheming to get my best spots. He even asked where they where so he could avoid them (ya right). He even thinks he can contribute something .What I dont know. I know he knows how to food plot pretty well (or so the land owner tells me).
Im going to talk to the owner first thing! This guys not going to ruin my 250 acre hunting spot! Ill post and let you know how it goes.
