I had the same thing happen near Ballinger when I had the lease there. In fact, when I saw the pic, I thought it was the EXACT same stand. I had a stand that I hunted near there and I always parked just across the fence from that feeder. I continued parking there each time I hunted the stand. Never saw anyone in it, I think it was a day hunt operation with very few customers. It must really suck to be a desperate idiot !

Human scent clearly doesn't bother deer that much when I not only filled a feeder in the morning, shot a deer at it that afternoon, took a leak after loading the deer and had 7 more deer then next morning 12 hours later.

Lots of people on this forum are leasing/selling 20 acre plots to hunt on------------ they are next to 4 fences !!!!!!!

I think I would talk to the guy. If not, I would talk to the Land Owner and then the GW. A GW that drops by every day can make a big difference.

Agree with human scent, however, mountain lion urine will keep almost all wildlife away for awhile.

I wonder how far off it is that we have a setback requirement for blinds/feeders by county for hunting...

People complain about new laws and we have enough and don't need any more, but its this lack of decency and respect that keeps piling them on.

Yep our neighbors are the same on one side. Completely scalped of brush. They just run the fenceline with a road feeder and wait for deer to jump over. Corn actually shooting on both sides of the fence.

If the property is being leased, contact the land owner and ask them to handle it. If it was my property, I'd have that fixed quickly or the hunter would be gone. It is the right thing to do. Plus, as a land owner, I don't want the liability risk of a hunter shooting my neighbor, especially after i was warned.

I saw call the GW. It appears he can't shoot at the feeder without the bullet crossing the fence line.

To make my previous point, --This is from a THF member ------ I"ll spare him and not put his name on this,,, it is posted at this time. I wonder if he hunts the fence line ?????????
""""""" . I have an 18 acre LF place. I took a couple of Axis off it this year. A Doe and a 2 year old buck. Also one WT Doe."""""

Start Dove hunting along the fence line

Talk to him about it

One year our neighbors put a feeder on the fence. Our ranch manager went to their camp and told them to move it or they would never have permission to track a deer on our property and would face trespass charges if they ever crossed. Feeder was promptly moved. Besides that a little curtesy is not hard

If your ranch manager walked into our camp making demands and threats he would probably be lucky to make it out of camp without someone whipping his arse after the laughter stopped.

That's not very hospitable....didn't say he was being an AH or jerk about it....could have been downright neighborly about it....just saying if it stays on the fence you won't be able to track wounded animals across the fence....but I guess y'alls camp is full of badazzes.....

You win the award for IBA today

GW told me the same thing. Said that it gives him the ability to talk to the person about it, but there really isn't anything he can do. And if a shot is taken, proven it is almost impossible because of the lack of evidence. He said the intent of the law was discourage this situation and as a way to "stack" charges in conjunction with other more serious offenses like poaching or shooting from a road

Whatever happened to the golden rule, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you". There was a time when neighbors actually did not treat each other like enemies and were actually nice to each other (GASP!)

And another would have won a weekend in jail and probably lost their lease over such idiocy.

^^^ found the fenceline hunters ^^^

Boy, I bet everyone here almost peed their pants in fear just reading that.
