If I was a farmer, (I'm not) and someone came on my land with that attitude they would not have a single chance of ever hunting on it. If we as a hunting community continue to disrespect farmers then we will truly lose that priviledge forever. Most farmers that don't give permission, don't for one reason. That is that some idiots thought it was a right to do whatever they wanted. If this is the kind of attitude we have in our hunting community I pity us all!!!
Yup trespassers don't help any situation, there are some on here though that think it's their right to enter owned land, I don't understand, again these farmers that have elk problems need herds brought down to controllable levels, taking one or two or even a dozen in several cases won't help. But the solution is not to make the hunter pay for damage, this is NOT their fault.
