Well I dont Want to talk about the legalities of it but I have A neighbor with that bought a couple acres and put a feeder right on my fence line. What can I put on my side to help detour them from there? Soap, hair? My set up is about 250 yards to the north. Any suggestions would sure be helpful.

They can put a feeder anywhere they please on their property. My suggestion would be to be a good neighbor and talk to them about it if you have an issue.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

I know They can put a feeder anywhere they want. That’s why I said What I said About the legalities. That is a whole nother discussion in itself lol. And in some instances may not be legal.

Are they shooting towards your blind? Or towards the fence?
Put ribbons and foil on the fence, will work for awhile, until the deer get used to it. But may be enough to make them move it.

uh ohh. Seen this before and person would drive his vehicle right down his fence line and drop moth balls along the way, park right by the fence with blind/feeder on neighboring property and then proceed to walk on up dropping more moth balls on his own property along the way for a ways and then walk over to his own hunting set up. He also added multiple wind chimes on his own property in that area and often freshened the moth balls.
you said you did not want to talk about legalties (and probably hunting etiquette) but I'd first try to be neighborly and approach them to discuss and suggest the move.

If his bullet travels across your fence line that is trespassing. Hard to prove though... I would talk with him to get him to at least put the blind on the fence line and the feeder on the interior of his property. If he's not willing to work with you, I would let him know he doesn't have permission to retrieve any animals that cross into your property. Put up cameras, call GW if you catch him on your property.
My guess is if you talk to him you can resolve the issue fairly easily.

Put gut pile right there on your side of the fence/ whenever you kill pigs stack them along the fence line. Other things you can do is put a lot of livestock on that fenceline or make sure there is no brush on your side of the fence either so deer would have to cross a "pasture" to get over there. Two drastic measures I can think of would be to put hog panels along the fence line there making an inclosure and put a couple loud dogs in there. If you have the money High fence that side of your property. Or if you are super villain rich, acquire gallons of mountain lion urine and get a crop duster to "do his thing"......

Is it a high fence or a low fence?
Seriously, find a way to talk to them.

Every chance you get, drop a duece right next to the fence. Works better and lasts longer than urine. Hair from the barber shop works pretty good too.

If it does no good or if there is no remorse, everytime you shoot a pig, open her up and toss her by the feeder or better yet by the blind over the feeder. I will guess though you can work it out with communication. 4W

Hell, I'd set up a stand where I could hunt it too. Of course, making sure if I did shoot, it would not cross his fence line.

Just hope the neighbor is courteous enough to keep it filled for you. Put stands 50-75 yards either side of the feeder where you can shoot parallel to your fence then hunt whichever side puts the wind in your face.

Is there a blind or a house on his side? With a couple of acres I'm wondering if he put the feeder up to hunt or just to watch deer.

I wonder how many deer your neighbor plans to take off his two acre tract.

I wonder how many deer your neighbor plans to take off his two acre tract. The state says he can fill all of his tags, regardless of acreage that he owns. Some of you guys kill me when y’all preach individual rights but y’all want to control how and where someone can hunt on their own land! Kinda ironic don’t you think!

Talk to them about the law and being respectful of your neighbors. IE..if a bullet crosses to your property not only is it very dangerous but illegal.
That working together to keep everyone safe and respectful results in neighbors allowing neighbors to retrieve their wounded game because you have good relations.
More times than not things can be worked out amicably.
