I totally understand your point, but next time he might just point a couple of loads of buckshot across the river from his high perch & hit you or your dogs!!! Permenent damage to you or your dogs wouldn't be a good thing. You are in the right to hunt where you were, but trying to explain your point him before something like this happens might save a lot of suffering later. Take care, Ron.

It's kind of funny to me sometimes reading these posts about how tough land owners are in some areas. I think PA is a little behind the times on that in a good way. While everything is posted around here and we do NOT have a right to retrieve law I actually never get hassled for going on peoples land to retrieve my dogs. I get permission from as many people as I possibly can to hunt they're land and when my dog winds up somewhere he shouldn't be I slip in to grab him and if I'm seen and questions just explaining where I dumped out and my dog can't read always get's me at least a cooperative "OK just go ahead and get your dogs then".

msinc There are five(5) different kind of hand shakes and most the time that will tell alot about what kind of man you have just met.
1.a finger squeeze.

2. A clammy hand shake

3.A hand Squeezer

4 a hand pumper

5 Just a good firm hand shake.

If Hobo shook hands with that guy 90% chance he would have a clammy hand shake because he would be scared or nervous or both.JMO.

Twenty five years ago all I had to worry about was a few areas of private land I couldn't hunt in the county I live in. Today I worry about the few areas of private land I can still hunt. I worry about my dog getting out of pocket and getting places they shouldn't be. I am like everybody else been yelled at, cussed at, shot at, cops called, game wardens called.

Times are changing. Coon hunting is a dying sport. Not due to kids not wanting to hunt but due to the land available to hunt. I know of a lot of adults who have quit for the very reason. I can only imagine what it would do to some high school kids out hunting and to have the things happen to them that has happened to me. Probably be there last trip.

Our government continues to clear cut our WMA's. They clear cut the hardwood and are planting pines. This is a WMA.....wildlife management area. I have never seen any animal eat a pine cone. I have written letters to a lot of elected officials asking for answers. I have received letters back saying they will look into, but never a letter back about an action plan.

Most of the private land around WMA's are owned by hunters or leased by hunt clubs. Most don't want a dog on there land period, but they plant food plots, have corn feeders but then wonder why every time you hunt the dog winds up on them.

I have tone broke all my dogs so I don't have to deal with the crazy people.

TIMES ARE CHANGING........I don't like it but that's the way it is.

In the dead of winter pine needles and the inner bark of a pine tree can be the most nutritious meal in the woods for deer, rabbits and countless other smaller animals.
So while hard woods are good for wildlife pines also do have they're place in the scheme of things just as well.

Here dogs that tree a lot of pine trees get labeled the same as a dog that trees a lot of Sycamore trees. They wind up for sale. I can't remember ever seeing or hearing a squirrel "cutting" in a pine tree.
I can believe that they would help the deer. But I have never seen a hunter set there stand up in a pine thicket. It was always around there primary food source in the fall the acorn tree.
I have spoken with the game wardens that govern these areas and off the record they feel the same way I do. It was all just a ploy for some additional funding for some program that did not have a budget or just an opportunity for a political party to pay back a supporter.
I am in no way a tree hugger. My best friend is one of the biggest loggers in middle Tennessee. But everyone on this board loves turning a hound loose in clean virgin timber.

they do the same thing here in nc. the loggers cut everytree in an area and destroy trees in all directions. they get as close or as deep into the swamps as they can too. i agree, they just raiding the state of its treasure for something that will buy a vote.
