good run in with a anti
Yesterday I was out doing a little grouce hunting with my bow on some public land. Right next to the land is a posted no trespass and a no hunting sign. After walking through the bush for a couple of hours I decided to call it quits for the day. Walking the trail back to my car I come across 3 grouce just inside the private property side. I stood there and watched for a couple of minutes and then they seen me and took off. I then hear a voice from behind me. It was the property owner. We talked about what I was hunting, little about the weather and stuff. He then extends his hand and thanked me for respecting his land. Said he did not agree why I hunt but I showed him respect for his land. I told him not all hunters are trespassers or shoot at everything that moves like most people like to make us out to be.

Well done! That landowner may never let anyone hunt on his land for personal reasons, but he probably has a whole new perspective on hunters and hunting thanks in part to you.

Why is a landowner who doesn't want hunting on his property considered an 'anti' ??

He told me his feelings on hunting. We were respectful to each other in our ideas. He told hunting is wrong and cruel.

Has too much time on their hands
Good on ya' Shane, and thank you.
The other amazing part of your story is that you found Simcoe County grouse that don't flush 30 yards away!

I know landowners who hunt elsewhere, but post their own property, it helps keep out strangers.
