[QUOTE="Mr. Magoo, post: 2677058, member: 124360"] Yep haha! Some appreciate 'danger' more than others..I'm one of the wierd ones that way. Y'all are right, it is hard to have typed conversations about touchy subjects where there's no misunderstandings or hard feelings because you practically have to type a novel so that people understand what you're trying to say. Properly communicating like this takes forever. I see good arguments on both sides and can bring some of my own for both sides as I'm also a landowner who occasionally gets asked permission to hunt (elk/deer). My case is a little different as I dont have a HUGE ranch, compared to the guy next door, and my house is almost right in the middle of it. Guy next door gets some pretty bad poaching pressure as some of the hunters here are ate up with the hunting bug- bad addicts that will do just about anything for their fix short of asking permission. The old game warden and I have nailed a few of them when I was leasing the neighbor's place but the new warden doesn't seem to care so I take it upon myself to get a little rowdy at times. So with all that said, have respect for people who will ask permission. I dont always say yes, mostly because opportunities to kill something on my own property during an open season are pretty rare most years and I enjoy having the wildlife on the place during the summer- only the relative lack of hunting pressure makes that possible. If they bring their kid and I know them it's almost always yes. Its just something I like to see. There have been some bad apples in the past who have really made a pest of themselves and taken advantage of that permission to hunt, to the point where they were talking multiple elk, one for each family memeber that had a tag and ruining my hunt in the process. So that put a bad taste in my mouth and I'm far more selective. So even if I was still leasing the neighbor's place, and even if I was charging people to hunt (which I've never done as of yet) it would still have to be someone I know. I wouldnt expect any other landowner to let some stranger to hunt on their place whether it was paid for or not (I have not been to texas to hunt so there's my lack of experience on the matter).
