Hunting property lines

I don't understand it. Its legal and you can do it. But you are at the mercy of the neighbors activities. I have a hunting club that joins one of my pieces of property. At my gate where I always park my truck they decided to put in a food plot. I basically park my truck in their food plot with them sitting in the shooting house 75 yards away. I really don't care but who wants to work 5 days a week and go to a shooting house just to have someone park a truck in the plot (nothing but a barbed wire fence between my truck and the food plot). Its their property and they can do what they want because I do what I want but I just don't understand it.

Not worried about your truck being shot?

I'm usually not one of the " I'll whoop there butt" types on here. BUT if some idiot on the neighboring property shot my truck I would be inclined to whoop their butt.

I have found that an ounce of consideration is worth a pound of jb weld and a coat of paint.

I agree. They should have been more considerate than put a food plot right on the line.

It would take a stupid SOB to shoot someones vehicle across the property line. Once that bullet crosses that property line there is all kind of legal actions.

Play this out in your head....

Have you ever made contact with the other club about this. There may be an easy solution to your problem. Ignoring the idiot hunting your "parking lot" can go many ways. I try not to piss off the neighbors. You never know what they are capable of. Personally, if I have other parking spots and he sees it so important to hunt your " parking spot", I'm gonna wonder what he saw so good that made him wanna hunt it. Choose your battles wisely because I have seen just how bad these things can go.

Please explain to me what problem I have with this. I don't care what they do on their side.

I bet they are from "down south"

Problem solved

Don't know. Don't care. Most folks wish they had more time to hunt. I just don't understand wasting opportunities. Whatever. Doesn't effect me. I won't hunt a property line because I have no control over what the neighbor is going to do that day.

Please explain why his opportunity has been wasted. Do a little research on late season deer movement and you will find that a great deal big deer hold up along property lines, old home places, parking spots, and road side thickets. AON even had an article about it in one of the last issues. And that huge buck may not give a crap about your truck being there because hes seen it parked there all those times you got out.

this being said, I'm not trying to piss in your wheaties. You posted and I answered.

Hunting parking spots can pay off! Me and my dad parked where we normally park this aternoon got climbers out of the truck with intentions of walking several hundred yards. We only made it 20 yard down the road and noticed ALOT of tracks crossing the road so we just stepped off the road about 50 yards, the wind was blowing to the road so any deer the truck may have spooked would have winded us anyway. We saw deer all afternoon. Had a young 8 running a doe around us around 3:40,and 4 other does feed in later on. I could look over my right shoulder and see the truck, look in front of me and see deer.

I'd be worried about some jack leg shooting ME. Real worried.

I don't hunt property lines for one reason. I don't want a deer I've shot running over the property line leaving me with another chore, that is, asking permission to cross the property line, to find my deer. Sometimes that can be easy, but sometimes it can take hours to get ahold of somebody to get permission.

Exactly.

I hunt my property lines and have permission from the three adjoining property owners to cross the property line and find my deer if needed. One of the three property owners gave me permission to bow hunt his property about a month ago.
