tbev Report post Posted January 6, 2006 Amanda, Unfortunately you were knowingly trespassing on private property. The privileged hunters were told by the legal owner, and the property manager to have you leave the premises if they saw you. Do to hunters like you; other hunters loose the privilege of hunting on private property. I am sorry such an avid and educated hunter as yourself does not respect these rules.

monstercoues Report post Posted January 16, 2006 Wow I can't believe you guys would say something like that. First of all we spoke with what we thought was the land owner and he gave us permission to hunt behind the ranch just like we told you in the field. So we were not knowingly trespassing, Second of all, we were on our way out because of you guys when we shot the deer. I am appalled at your response. If we were knowingly trespassing, why would we hike in from the highway instead of driving in there like you guys did. We were respecting the rancher who told us it would be fine to hike in there, as long as we didn't drive in on the road. It is because of hunters like us that work hard and obey the laws that we are rewarded at the end of the hunt. Amanda, Unfortunately you were knowingly trespassing on private property. The privileged hunters were told by the legal owner, and the property manager to have you leave the premises if they saw you.

tbev Report post Posted January 18, 2006 First of all you both knew that he was not the landowner. Because there have been several attempts made by you trying to get a hold of the primary landowner. And there is a reason he does not return your calls. You had many excuses on why you were on the land, ex: the fence lines are not marked good enough, or you were just trying to cross the land to get to state land and you thought that you were talking to the correct land owner. (do you remember those)? Also, trespassing is trespassing, whether you drive in or walk in. You should know better than that. And after being told to vacate the premises you conveniently took 2 hours to walk 400 yards and managing to take a buck off of private land. As we watched the whole thing in disgust. Not disgusted because you took the deer, but disgust because of the name you stand behind. You should set examples not excuses. So therefor I am appalled by your response. AZ4LIFE, no need to read the post better, I was there. But thanks for your concern. 25-06 I am not exactly sure what you agree with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coues7 Report post Posted January 18, 2006 tbev, look at your sign up date and how many posts you've made: 5-January 06 Posts: 2 You sign up just to cause problems!!!! What's the deal with that??? I know both people you met, one of them very very well. Niether of these people would intentionally trespass. As you've shown in your post most likely you and the land owner are A$$HOLES .....and by the way since when do you or the land owner own the GAME on any piece of property...PUBLIC OR PRIVATE??? As you stated "there have been several attempts made by you trying to get a hold of the primary landowner. And there is a reason he does not return your calls". If the land owner was so dang concerned about people being on his property maybe he should have picked up the phone when Amanda called on her dime or made a phone call on his dime stating that he did in fact own the property and that no one was welcome on it. As far as anyone knows the land is public or Amanda did recieve permission from the correct land owner. An unanswered phone call is as good as a "no I don't own the property" Sincerly Yours, Scott S.
