He finally found one bull all by himself almost all the way into pomeroy. Game dept heards them out with helicopters last year i heard it started around mid october.

Post by: 400out on July 21, 2010, 09:37:58 AM: They say it's to run them out of the farm land ( damge control ) personally I think the amount of money they put into heli,pilot,gas,ect. ) would compinsate the farmers really nice!

Post by: hunter-4-life on July 21, 2010, 09:52:33 AM: Oh most definitely. Also If they didn't run them out I think that the farmers would hunt them and be quite successful as well as if they are doing that much damage the farmers might be more likely to give permission out to people like ourselves.

Yeah good luck with that! All it takes is 1 guy to get permission then cut a fence shoot a piece of equipment or drive through a field!!! and it's all over

Post by: jackelope on July 21, 2010, 12:27:39 PM: The biggest concern/problem that I believe the farmers or landowners have down with giving permission to hunt there is guys driving out in the stubble/CRP fields and setting the fields on fire with their trucks. I've gotten permission to a lot of property down there but the 1 gleaming warning comes towards driving in the field. I've seen 1 field set on fire and that was done by the landowner's son in his dad's truck driving out into the field to pick his buddies up.
oops.
