    I had to congratulate my dad his biggest buck with a bow. He has struggled the past few years on having a successful hunt due to our neighbors, who happen to be anti-hunters. Every morning our neighbor takes his dog for a walk through his woods during prime time burping, yelling at his dog, and even barking at his dog. My dad has not shot a deer in 3 years due to this, but he stuck with it, and connected with the buck of his life last weekend. He has taught me so much throughout life, and now has shown me that persistence really does pay off. Congrats Dad

    Congrats to your dad. I don't know what state you are in but his neighbor's actions are illegal and fineable in Ohio. Have your dad record the neighbor and show the recording to your local CO.

    I'd make sure I hung him and skinned him in plain sight of the neighbors.

    One would have to prove intent to interfere...and that is all depending on wording of the law if one exists in the state.

    Who cares right now though, big congrats to your pops!!!!

    Thats one hell of a Buck! Congrats to your dad and shame on your neighbor if that is indeed his intent. Im with Bucksnbears i would thank the neighbor for pushing the buck his way....that may put a stop to it if they think they caused that deer to move to your dad lol

    That's awesome. Congrats to your dad. As for the neighbor,unfortunately he can do as he pleases on his land. Sucks, but it is what it is.
