Well after riding my bike for half an hour and then another hour walk through the woods to get to my destination on game lands that borders private land where I had found a couple of nice long beards that roost on public and walk into a cow padture I quietly walked in with no light so I wouldn't spook the turkeys I set up in a makeshift ground blind that I made two weeks beforehand and waited in anticipation for daybreak. Well right before daybreak I see lights coming across the field and here comes a truck driving right up to the fence about 75 yards from where I was sitting, the man gets out and loudly shuts the door, well I'm figuring so much for ninja mode getting in there quietly so I figure I better let him know I'm there so I flash my light at him and whistle, he was quite surprised I was sitting there and asked me why I was on his land? I politely told him that I was on game lands and that I was not on his land, then he told me that I was cutting him off from all the turkeys and that he would not have any chance at shooting one because they're all coming from the area where I was sitting so I politely told him that there are birds scattered throughout the game lands area where we were at so he walked off in a huff muttering something under his breath that I couldn't understand but I can imagine what it was. Well the birds that were roosted around me flew in a different direction but 2 hours later two long beards came from his direction in front of my gun barrel and only one left.
I was polite but firm, I wasn't leaving after I was there first.
