The state dosen't own animals or fish, the taxpayers do they are only hired to manage them for the public who own them.(I'm not really sure the word own is really the right terminology). In this case I'd put up a tower stand on the border, hunt it and guard your property.

The only options you have is either talk to the person or put a posted sign up and a stand their. Yes the deer are on your property and they should not be shooting onto your property.

However you do not own those deer the state of Minnesota does and anything you do to disrupt his hunt or keep him from harvesting a deer will be considered hunter harassment and you could get some fines from the dnr even if you do it on your property.

If you do something to only prevent him from harvesting deer on your property that is not hunter harassment. Hanging a screen, putting up a fence or sign, or planting trees to block his view of your land isn't preventing him from legally taking deer. It just prevents him from illegally shooting deer on your property.

I do agree though that playing music or making noise where its likely going to drive deer away from his property as well then that could be harassment.

Take your dog for his walk right in that area, let him lift his leg a million times, you won't have a deer near the dude ever again. You can have my dog to chain to the fence, doghouse goes with it ? Just kidding before I get shelled by everyone, it would work though, I can't even believe how dogs can change deer patterns/behavior mainly talking about dogs that get to roam freely a lot, we have 1/2 the deer we used to in our area and it's dog related, we all have noticed a big difference.

I think you just hit on a great new business idea. Bottled dog pee!

Some hybrid poplar will have that spot screened off in 5yrs or a little sooner.

Until then, I like the idea if setting a cheap ground blind out there or hunting nearby to "guard" the spot, but if that's not an ideal spot than its not worth it to just sit there for the sole purpose of discouraging the neighbor.

If this were my neighbor and he was shooting onto my property illegally I'd have no problem planting trees or visually disrupting his ability from shooting deer on my property. I'd be fine if he wanted to call a CO and complain about hunter harassment, that would be a fun conversation with the CO as the neighbor tries to complain that he can no longer illegally hunt deer on my property.

How big is the opening? If it really bugs you and its not that big of an opening, you could build a cheap fence. Sarah Palin built a three story privacy fence in between her and her liberal neighbor that moved in next door to write an investigative book about her. Set a couple of 12 to 14 foot posts in the ground and cover it with scrap lumber.

Unless you decide you do not mind him shooting into your property - having a conversation with him may not provide the answer. Especially if there is bait. I would not approach him in his stand, but maybe at his vehicle.

Plant a few fast growing aspen/popple and behing that a few evergreen trees along the property line. This will close of the lane in a few years.

You can certainly also put up a large sign or two about 10 feet high to block his sight lines.

The CO is your area sounds "lazy" or "local". I would talk with the CO again and find out why he did not respond faster and discuss that he may be wrong about shooting across another person's private property. You can also talk with his supervisor. I have found some MN COs are great to deal with while others are pretty lax in their interpretation of the law, especially if they grew up in the area.

Lack of law enforcement action may also suggest that the guy has ties to law enforcement, local government, or involved heavily in local politics.

I crapped in a guy's treestand over this very same thing. The S.O.B put his stand in the tree that the Fence was nailed to. On my way out opening morning, I made a point to walk the fenceline and [PoorWordUsage] at the base of the tree while he was sitting in it. Heard alot of curse words and "what are you doin's" but I didn't say a word and moved on. The stand was gone by that afternoon. Legal or not, no man has the right to shoot a deer standing on a neighbors property!

      It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
