A few weeks ago we lost some hunting ground to the amish. This property has been in my buddies family for a lot of years. Their family has one of the oldest histories in this area. His grandma passed and the remaining family sold to the amish. I cringed when I heard who my new neighbors would be. I have had a lot of dealings with these people and most were not good. I know there are good and bad in all cultures, but I'm biased when it comes to them.
Tonight my son and I are heading out to hunt a ground blind and have to pass my feeder on the way. I have been avoiding this area and wanting to leave it alone for the snow days when all these acorns are buried. I have had this feeder up over a year and only hunted it a few times. Fifty Five gallon drum feeder that I've put a lot of corn and money into. As we are nearing the feeder my son points out a climber left at the base of a tree no more than thirty yards from my feeder. The stand is on their newly acquired land, but it is an obvious set up on my feeder. We walk a little further and there is a candy wrapper, and boot tracks under the feeder. At this point I'm fucking fuming. They have only been here a few weeks and the shit is starting already. I now have to move a very well built double occupant wooden stand, and the feeder. Also it is time to post land that didn't need posting before.
It's also time to go knock on their door and introduce myself, I hope they like me. :smiley_boxing:
Yes, the blue plague has invaded my hood. :smiley_badmood:
