back to original question- why dont you invite the dog hunters to run you property 1 weekend during the season??? You will get the benefit of hunting "your" deer with dogs(which can be very exciting and fun), and they will(or at least should) respect you and your property more and may try harder to keep their dogs off your property. I used to be in a couple of clubs in the lower state that did this. it seemed to work well. One time they ran our club, it sounded like a dove shoot- deer was running everywhere.
i also had dogs run the biggest deer ive ever seen to me. (and he's probly still running cause i cant hit shit) remember, its 'hunting'. try to work something out so you can relax and have fun.(thats the point, rite??)
We do the same thing.........we get with all the neighboring property owners and try to have one combined hunt a year........it helps alot more than being just a jackass that rides by real slow when youre on the side the roads creeping and staring not even saying word...........btw huntchessies.........with an attitude like that you might want to tote around an ass brace w/ ya cause it wont be long and you'll get ur's broke..........

greenscow---before you go posting every tree on the border, it really does make sense to meet with your neighbors and express your concerns. let them know you are interested in keeping the dogs off your property. at the very least, you could ask them to alert you to days they are running. that way, you can shoot the deer in front of the dogs and be there to stop them.
Ugh. Stupid people piss me off.
and, yeah its one thing to shoot some stray sooner, but dont shoot nobodys hunting dog. the dog is just doing its job.
You then go on to say, a few quotes down, that you've participated a few times. So, you're a moron w/ no skill and have only caused a few problems. HOWEVER, it is legal, so please continue to allow me to be a moron w/ zero skill and I will only cause a few headaches, I promise.
'zactly! Nuff said.
Amen brother and fellow dog driver/hunter!
Ok, here's that quote I was referring to a few lines back. I'm confused. You're either a moron w/ zippo in the department of dog hunting experience or you've been a couple of times and that makes you the leading expert on the art of the outdoor adventure of canine-deer hunting. Which is it? Nevermind, don't answer that, I won't be able to understand your response. Afterall, I do occasionally participate in dog drives....I must be retarded.
If I was a rich man... I'd put a fence up 5 feet inside my line. High enough stop a dog, low enough to not be a hindrance to a deer.
I don't shoot deer dogs. They are just doing what dogs do. I will say, however, that, in my opinion, any dog hunter that puts out his dogs with the EXPECTATION that they will cross onto my land, and intends to shoot any deer that the dogs jump on my land, is poaching by proxy.
If you have a small patch of land and put out Walkers, you KNOW they are gonna get onto your neighbors place. If your neighbor is still hunting, you have diminished the value of his experience and his use of his property - that may come up in court some day. That's about the same as taking a shit on your neighbors door step.
Dealing with less-than-ethical dog hunters is a burden many of us have shared.
But, again, many do it right. They just aren't the ones you hear about, cause they do it that way.

Only thing I would add is that if the dog hunters near you are pulling shit that you would NEVER do to another landowner, then "talking" with them is likely to be of little use. Talk to the landowner once very pleasantly... tell them your hunts are being ruined and if it happens again simply sue them. When they get a bill from their lawyer for 500-600 bucks the dog running will miraculously stop.
Typical.
Again, this topic is back on the blocks, and again, we've got a new crop of children who just don't get it. DixieDipShit, HighBallin-LookWho's12YearsOldNow, and PBiz, (who knows better) are defending something that is basically undefendable. You're in here trying to make generally erroneous points without even knowing that these same impotent points have been posed and rejected as truly stupid by concerned landowners, conscientious hunters and reasonable people for years.
Dog hunting is not permanent. It is not here for "our lifetime". Don't be so arrogant. Hunting in general is not permanent. But still, trying to say that it is bad for hunting in general for hunters at large to target this type of hunting for disposal is preposterous.
Let's walk through this evolution logically and truthfully, shall we...
1) Anyone who is willing to release a dog with the intent of running deer across or off of someone else's property is a poacher and further, they are tresspassing. Hence they are a tresspasser.
2) Everyone knows that tresspassers are scum. If you didn't, you do now.
3) And since the dogs are allowed to run free across property lines, this pretty much makes anyone who turns out dogs on a track that is not enclosed by a fence, a poacher. I'm sure there are exceptions, but they are rare and therefore not worthy of further discussion or acknowledgement.
And just for you DixieDownsSyndrome, one acre of land carries the same amount of property rights as 100,000 acres. A person has the right to enjoy peace on their property. This is one of the great parts about the United States. We have property rights here. It is one of the key differences that seperate us from many, many countries that suffer without these rights and protections. If you don't understand what I'm saying, or simply disagree with it because it is contrary to your interests, you're in for a tough lesson down the road. And hopefully, this lesson will come at a considerable cost to you.

I agree 100% on numbers 1 & 2.
However I find some things wrong with 3. Most dogs aren't allowed to run across property lines. Thats where "cutting the dogs off" comes into play. Every hunter, regardless of situation, has to be courteous and responsible for their actions.
I am willing to practice the same rules and or laws that Georgia Doghunters abide by.

As PBiz has already said we built a 1.75 mile fence that cost us about 5K to stop the conflict with an adjoining landowner. We are defiantly doing everything in our power to “play by the rules” and keep our neighbor happy. The Idea of dog hunting adversely affecting still hunting is a complete farce. On the one day of the week that the dog hunt actually takes place maybe, but dog hunting as a whole puts more deer on surrounding properties. I own a piece of property aprox 42 acres it is fairly close to a dog hunting club. For the last two years I have started my feeders in May after turkey season. My game camera proves that before the dog hunting starts I have 2-4 deer eating under the feeder all summer, however after dog hunting starts I have 10-15 deer eating under the same feeder. Most of the increase comes with horns. But I do believe as the Yankees take over and hunting lands get smaller the days of dog hunting are few. It will be a sad day for the Carolina Sportsmen when that happens.

My post stung a little bit, didn't it puddin?
And don't even try to come in here and talk about cutting off a pack of Walkers down in the swamp BEFORE they cross the property line. That's a load of horse manuer. I've seen it, son. I've been there. I've chased a pack of Walkers for more than 10 miles across all description of property line.
