Would you cross a property line to hunt a turkey?

Never
Under Certain Conditions
Yes I would
I plead the 5th

When I was younger... heck yeah... now that I'm older I don't run quite as fast...

treaspased.

In one area I have permission on 4 farms that that are almost in a row. So yes I cross the propery lines all the time to hunt turkeys.  ;)

I crossed the property line on the farm I hunt but there was a reason.
I shot a bird on the side of a hill (I was on the farm I have permission to hunt, and the bird was on the same farm that I was on). It rolled down the hill and onto the other farm. I crossed onto the other farm got the bird and got back onto the farm I was hunting.

I would never knowingly cross a property line to hunt Turkeys, I have crossed property lines to get from one public area to another.
In MN if you shoot a wildgame animal and it crosses a property line you can legally go and retrive the animal unless the land owner tells you not to.  Then you have to go get the sheriff and he will get you permission to retrive the game animal.
In my Opinion the moment you cross the property line with out permission your bird (deer etc.) is illegal and you have broken the law.

Somebody once said "You can often tell if someone is a good turkey hunter by whether or not the knees are worn-out on their camo pants and how badly their inseam is ripped from crossing barbed wire fences."   ::)

Here are some true quotes from different client's I've guided over the years - trying to convince me to cross when we were standing at the property line, listening to hammer-heads on the wrong side of the fence:

"I'll be honest, I'd go after him if I was at home"
"they're all God's turkeys..."
"we've got shotguns, what are they gonna do to us?"
"I'll go to jail with you..."

Turkey hunters, you gotta love 'em   :lol:

Actually think all of these guys ended up killing, even though we didn't get to go after the ones they wanted. 



You mean like my pair of pants  :z-guntootsmiley:

Nope, not without permission.  But I will set up 40 yards off a line and if he comes 5 yards on my side he is mine.  Been there done that.  If he doesn't then I haven't called him and he walks.  I will catch him on my side another morning.

I would only to get the bird or game i killed, than I would walk to the door and tell them what i did and why. If they're still upset I'd say sorry but I'm not here just to kill, Im here to kill and eat. Not to waste anything. And I would offer some of the harvest to them.
