Idiots on public land 😑

I like the 💩 idea.

I'd make it my daily potty stop
That is a pretty good idea 🤔 Ill put a pin on this spot on ONX and post it so everyone on here that's near there can stop and take one. It will be our own public porta John.

like another person in the thread, i also have a warped sense of humor...1) place reflective tacks from the parking lot to his stand location 2) hang orange tape about 5 yds apart from that location through the woods going away from the stand location using no trails and just randomly stop hanging the tape 3) mock scrape with hanging vine 10 ft from his stand 4) take a handful of rocks and on the trail where he was standing, make a pentagram... need more let me know. I have some great ones if he puts his stand in there and leaves it before season.

if you wish him to full on $h]t his pants, got that one too... many of the pop up halloween stores are already open and if not amazon will have them. you can get one of the motion sensor devices that makes "scary" noises when something trips it. put it out of sight but in a place where something will trip it (set it up as you would a trail cam, high and in the area of travel) in the dark, that will be fun. also there are trip poppers that you can attach to the base of a tree, string fishing line across the perspective trail and that gets tripped in the dark....
 
Went scouting this afternoon and got my cameras I have had out. Well, I was walking down a trail back to my truck and ran into this "kid" maybe 18-19 years old standing off the trail. When he seen me he yelled hey man this is my spot! As I looked at him like he was crazy and told him buddy you know this is public land right no one has a "spot". Then he comes back and says we'll this is mine I better not catch you back over here. The kid was standing beside a freaking trail in the middle of some thick tember that you can't see maybe 5' with his vortex binoculars.😂😂😂 I can't stand people like that. So, to top it off I get back home start looking at my cameras and sure enough there he is on me grabbing my camera and turning it around on the tree. What the heck…. 😂😂😂
Hate having to hunt public for idiots .
 
I don't know if any of you that's been on TN Deer for years can remember this. But I clearly remember somebody walking out to their stand. Only to find a set of deer balls and pecker hanging off the steps of their stand. Not sure how many years ago that was. But that sure would be one for books. I'd do it given the chance and or reason. That's like a case closed you ain't topping that one moment.
 
Speaking of the pentagram, that actually happened to me one time. It was on private land that I had hunted for years. Me and a buddy who was scared of the dark anyway were walking into the woods one morning bow hunting. It was in an already spooky draw that we called boomballa holla. Well of course I was in the lead and I see a faint light up ahead. Knowing no one else had permission to be there I never checked up but then something was off. It ended up being a candle that was still lit along with several others that had went out. We noticed some rocks that were never there and upon further investigation we were standing in the middle of the pentagram. Talk about sh it yo pants! My buddy freaked out so bad he panicked and the first thing he decided to do was climb a tree in his climber right next to the dang thing. I went on to my usual tree up the hollar and from then on it was always even more spooky walking in that dang place. Btw, this was miles from any house or much of anything and nothing else was ever seen.

I've seen it twice, both times on public land. The first one was a hang-on stand, with screw-in steps. Someone had killed a buck and hung the evidence on the second step up.

The second time it was hanging on the antenna of their truck.

I guess maybe they had words or whatever.

Was scouting around private and ran across some devil worshipers camp on adjacent land. it happens...
 
That is against the law, Hunter harassment.
Hard to prove getting out of a truck at a parking lot is harassment. Moth balls and posting gps outhouse spots, well much easier.

Then again, see my post directly above.

In all seriousness, I'd move on. But if he's truly 100 yards from the parking lot, I'm not going out if my way to be super quiet.
 
I've been at this longer than most of you have been alive.
I used to get mad. Now I team up. After I introduce myself I suggest we work together. Everyone has a much better chance for success.
Case in point:
In my most recent experience where I met some hunters from out of state, we met at the parking spot, discussed where we each were hunting, and agreed to meet at a certain time for the next morning hunt so we could all walk in unison, (seriously!) making it sound like ONE hunter was crunching frosty leaves as we proceeded down the trail. then one by one (of 3) we peeled off into our side trails to our stands. It wasn't my idea about the step in unison thing but I played along.
I didn't take a bruiser that day but one of us did before that day ended. I remember they were from Florida but don't remember their names. One of the Florida guys borrowed my 4 wheeler to retrieve his buck.
A year later they shared a one pin for a spot that looks amazing. If I can hold on to my buck tag long enough this season I hope to hunt it when the wind gets right!

Always remember, kindness is contagious.

And if you celebrate Christmas, don't be a hypocrite !!! If you don't celebrate Christmas, be nice anyway!
