[QUOTE="MillIronQH, post: 289740, member: 4658"] When I was managing the Campbellton unit for the C4 Ranch at Pleasanton we had a major problem with three Dallas cops who bought 80 acres from an estate that bordered us on the east side. At that time the ranch was all behind barb wire and on several occassions one of us heard the shot and got there in time to catch them dragging a deer back across the fence. Of course they always swore they had shot the deer on their side and it had jumped the fence before it went down. Doc said let them go but finally went to them and offered to give them their money back for the place. They basiclly laughed at him and told him to be somewhere else. That is not a good thing to do to a man who has five generations buried in the local cementary, owns nearly 10,000 acres, a chunk of the hospital and helped found one of the banks. The next week I spent $25,000 of his money at TSC and now the Campbellton unit is behind a high fence. That means these guys are high fenced on three sides with the only open side being on the highway and then it's high fence in both directions and on both sides of the highway for about two miles. If anyone is looking for a nice Brush Country retreat cheap let me know. If you want to run cows on it it should handle about eight units and a bull most years but you'll have to haul water or drill a new well. My point is that in the beginning all these guys would of had to do is ask and they could have hunted across the fence with no problems. 90% of the time if hunters are polite and respect people and their property the answer will be yes. I've never coon hunted behind dogs but I think that if I was going to I'd go to every landowner in the area I was hunting, introduce my self and ask permission to hunt/cross their land before I started. and then I'd still let them know each time before I went hunting.
