Pretty much anywhere you are there is a chance of stray bullets. I live in the country with forest on two sides, and I worry during deer season. I put up safety zone signs up in the forest, and post my 10 acres ( mostly due to lowlifes). I do not hunt on other people’s property. I wouldn’t let that thought deter you, but I might have a discussion with the local police and game warden about any unsavory clans around that area.

I agree with posting the land. My sportsman's club is adjacent to a PA gameland. The concern isn't as much stray bullets as people not aware of property boundaries. The club has posted the perimeter to make people aware of the property lines. In our case there are active ranges on our property and we don't want folks wandering onto a hot range. A side note: someone mentioned the purple paint law. Check your local regs. PA has 67 counties, 65 of them honor the purple paint law. Two, Allegheny and Philadelphia, do not and signs must be posted. Let me help you out. Which way did you come in? | |||

I'm away from my computer but will answer some more questions when I get back. It's in SC, not NC. I have looked over the DNR website, but will investigate further. I called and left a message, but haven't heard back yet. It is my understanding that we are supposed to paint purple on the trees on our property line, but will do some more research on that. I already mentioned that I wouldn't mind hunters chasing a shot animal onto our property, as I believe that's the humane option for the animal. I just don't want them shooting in our direction. So that's why I would post on the property line. I don't understand the "don't be that guy" comment. Perhaps you could elaborate? Thanks for the suggestions, all! Phone's ringing, Dude. | |||

Hopefully motorized vehicles aren't permitted on the WMA land because if not, any trails wide enough for an ATV at the edge of your property will be tempting. I have an understanding with two neighbors to occasionally use some of my trails near their property, one an older man for his SXS the other a couple with their horses. Another neighbor, or their kids, cut a trail up to my property where I have a trail running parallel near the line. They just connected their own trail between a few trees over to mine and were riding on me enough to chew it up to the point I was worried about erosion. To tell them "stay off" I cut a couple dead trees down across the access they made and to their credit they stopped. No car is as much fun to drive, as any motorcycle is to ride. | |||

Sorry about that, but the good news is it's still a purple paint at 100 yard spacing state

From DNR: It is unlawful to hunt deer within 300 yards of a residence when less than 10 feet above the ground without permission of the owner and occupant. Of course, there's no residence there yet. However, archery, muzzleloaders, crossbows, and pneumatic weapons are allowed. The property is considered in Zone 1, and from DNR: In Game Zones 1 and 2 it is unlawful to pursue deer with dogs. Still reading... Phone's ringing, Dude. | |||
