So surprisingly there was a buck on our land the other day.

Except we knew this because we heard shots very close to the house all of the sudden. A truck on the road with a man taking shots over his hood at it. Right into our hay field where the buck was, with a horse behind his field of fire. Needless to say, I was livid, but when my father and I confronted him (boxed in his truck with our vehicles before he could leave) my father opted not to call the police. It was an older gentleman and while retaliation isn't a fear, my father felt it wasn't necessary. I dunno, I'd have nailed his rear end to the wall, since he was poaching from the road onto our land.

His excuse was "I thought it was so and so's land still, and he always let me hunt on it". Nope, it hasn't been "so and so's" land for five years, and even then, one does not hunt from the road.

He missed, there was no blood trail that I could find.

Still incredibly mad about it. I have a picture of him and his vehicle in case it ever happens again. Breaking the law like that really steams me.

I would have strung him up by his nuts out in my barn and then called the cops in to cut his *** down and haul him off to jail/hospital. Every year we hear about somebody getting a horse shot because either someone was poaching or they were not taking care of what was down range when they take the shot.

Glad you stopped him... he was lying and hoping to get away with what he knew was wrong. He was being greedy and stupid. Call the MDNR next time 800-292-7800 Rap line. By not reporting him, he'll just keep doing it. I would have nailed his hide to the wall too!


Hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!

Yeah, report him and ruin the next couple of days for him. If he can't hunt responsibly, he shouldn't be out hunting.

So full of turkey and pie. kinda glad that my girls have been molting and not producing that many eggs for us right now. would have been way too tempting to make a batch of deviled eggs today and my brother and I would have power ate our way thru them.

Boss was trying to get my deviled egg recipe on Wednesday, but somebody had to inform her that is a family secret.

So much food; so little space. Wonderful! Yesterday a RAT waved 'good night' when closing up the coop. UGH! Today 'Black Friday' shopping involved getting rat poison. Not so nice, but they are too smart to trap, so on to Plan B. I do hate to see all the bromothelin out there rather than warfarin type products. Nasty! Mary
