Can I ask just one question ? Where are you lot boundaries ? I wouldn't like it either ,yet in Renton for example the gun range is less than 100 yards from lot of regular residences ,that is place where people fire rifles ,not shot guns every day of the year .In my opinion  you had do act because someone told your wife to *&()@__ (&( - I can see your point ,but you knew that can happen one day when you bought that house .I think the OP could have more manners ,however since there is no distance law -you have to bite the bullet and hope this will not happen more often,sorry ....there are some people that don't care about you or what you think is right .I see them more than often . 
Everyone thinks that I'm freak ,I don't look different do I ?

"One last comment, we didn't call the sheriff until the "Hunters" basically told my wife to @%#@ off because they were on public land!!" White Tornado

I think you guys keep forgetting what WT said. His wife was upset because they were upset how close they were. His wife yelled at the hunters and the hunter told her to @%#@. Being an @sshole isn't against the law, so i would be really curious why thier boat got towed home.... My guess is that they were prevented from driving it back because they were intoxicated/incapacitated in some way.  :twocents:

Just because it is legal... Doesn't always make it right. This type of crap is what is getting places shut down.

I'm also tired of loosing more hunting spots to people who want to build on every good spot to duck hunt and think they own the  whole beach or its OK if they hunt their but call fish and game when some one else does.And yes i still think the home owner and the state is just as much to blame as the idiots shooting to close to this guys house .Their should be a buffer zone to how close people can build or live next to tidal zones rivers and lakes.

Did you not read the part where he said the house has been there for 60 years? This isn't someone who just built on the edge of your personal hunting area. Why do you keep going there? We're supposed to be trying to work with private landowners to give us more opportunities, not compete with or antagonize them. Your attitude is one that will not long support hunting with landowners and non-hunters.

Perhaps I'm the minority, but I don't think people should be restricted from hunting on public property.  This situation is only slightly different from the recent attempts to outlaw hunting on the saltwater down here in Thurston County.  The efforts are entirely driven by landowners who don't want hunters around.  Naturally they declare hunting unsafe (after moving to hunting areas and building homes), but there is not a single incident of someone or someone's property being damaged (as verified by the county sheriff's records). 

These particular individuals were definitely a-holes.  I personally wouldn't hunt where it sounds like they did, but I don't think they should be restricted from doing so either.

I agree with you and think that how we hunters conduct ourselves and deal with the landowners will dictate the level of their support when it comes time to vote on these issues. How these hunters acted is not in the best interest of our sport's future.

~  ~One of my favorite clothing patterns is camouflage. Because when you're in the woods it makes you blend in. But when you're not it does just the opposite. It's like "hey, there's an *censored*."”

Be come one with Nature......... Then Marinade it.

One moment you're flying south for the winter, then - BANG - gravy.
