How close to someone dying!

didn't the guy say in the video that with a bow he only had to be 125 feet from a house. I didn't hear 125 yards I'm sure he said feet. I could be wrong. It's a 100 yards from a dwelling anyway. If he was 125 from my house on my property I would have came over and ran him off also. But I wouldn't have been hostile about it unless I needed to go that route.

And youd be wrong! Its a 100 yards on public land there is no such law for private

That only applies to public land. Nothing in the books for private.
 
If you were stupid enough to do so, and it seems you are, you would only do it once, I can promise you that 😉
You have no legal, moral, or ethical right to trespass on someone else's property and "force" or threaten a legal hunter to stop hunting . To do so puts you in the same class as others who harass hunters. You may not like people who hunt legally next to your property, but they are within their rights. But, sometimes you can be a kind, civil human being and talk to someone reasonably and work out a solution that works for everyone instead of fancying yourself a tough guy.

You would be wrong. Had a neighbor tell me I couldn't shoot squirrels on my property because they were "His Squirrels". I was thinning them out. Stood there at the fence raising heck. A squirrel up a little ways jumping tree to tree. I took about three big steps that way and blasted it with my shotgun. He huffed and puffed all the way back to his house. Next day he had posted signs up and down the fence. I was like ok. Then he complained about my other neighbors cows because they were sh**ing close to the fence under a shade tree. Tree hugger cut the tree down....Kinda sounds like something you might do @Soft Talker.

This is borderline except correct on public lands....Depends on what County your in and if outside most City Limits( they have their own Ordinances). Most County's are private property is private property. Discharging firearms is not against the law as long as you are doing it in a safe matter. Good backstop and such.
 
So much for being a brotherhood here. Good way to ruin yourself man. A lot these guys on here will go out of their way to help a member, even the ones they don't know.
I'll stick with the members who demonstrate common sense. You've spent thousands on a lease, that I hope is at least a couple hundred acres, and you are going to set up 100 friggin yards from your neighbors fence, and actual house for Christ's sake, to kill the deer coming off his bird feeder. Pretty ignorant, as well as pathetic. Seek one fanboys I reckon 🤣
 
From what I could gather online this happened somewhere in Michigan and the bow hunter was not trespassing the guy with the AR-15 was the trespasser.
I kind of figured the same when the bowhunter said his onx app showed that he was on the lease he had permission on. The response from the guy holding the gun on him didn't sound like he was certain that the exact spot was actually his property, but then I was doing my best to decipher what he was saying between his swearing.
 
Let's see... Trespassing, hunter harassment, and the biggie, aggravated assault. The guy with the AR should be facing serious legal issues... The hunter did a good job of keeping calm. But he needed to call the law as soon as the AR guy walked off... That recording makes great evidence...
 
Some additional explanation from one side of the story (bow hunter)



I was held at gunpoint while bowhunting our lease in early November 2022. The guy trespassed onto our property and pointed his AR at me for 3 minutes on video. I tried to press charges but did not have enough evidence per the prosecuting attorney... he told the cops that i was stalking his kids through a tent on his property. I was 50 ft from his property line in a blind that was out there for over 3 months looking over a food plot that we planted. All windows facing his property were closed.... I am not trying to play victim, I just want to make sure a message is sent to this guy to let him know that this is not okay...
My brother hunted this evening (over a year later from original incident). This guy seen him while he was walking to his treestand (150+ yards from the property line). He then open fired his AR into our thicket and bullets were whizzing under my brothers stand for over an hour. My brother waived his orange hat, the guy continued to shoot. My brother yelled "Your the idiot who held my brother at gunpoint last year, you won't get away with this, the cops are on the way!". The guy then trespassed onto our property and said "what, are you afraid to talk to the guy with the gun?!".
Needless to say, my brother stayed in his stand to avoid being hit by a stray bullet.
Police and DNR say there is nothing that can be done again! How can we escalate, send a message to this guy, and get some Justice? We currently can not hunt half of our lease as concerned for our safety. #michigan #hunting @TedNugent #TedNugent #hunterharrassment #trespassina #hunt #lawenforcement

There's a post on AR-15.com where the bow hunter was telling his side of the story, supposedly he not only threatened him, but was spraying bullets onto the lease in the direction of his brother in law who was in a treestand farther into the property, bullets supposedly almost hitting him.
Got a link?
