Really fed up

[Hoolit 2]

Hi all as you guessed by the title i am really fed up ,always trying to work round joe public and poachers .

A few nights ago i was out at the foxes set up in the landy watching a den where the dog and vixen are right on the lambing parks (yes i know i should have delt with them earlier but a wee accident has laid me up for a few weeks) anyway im out there saw charlie coming up the hill towards the den ,let him come on a bit at about 150yds i gave him a wee squeeck to stop him rifle in shoulder ten the blast of light from some twat driving along the road arm out the window lamping the field ,of course i gave chase but it was a waste of time i couldnt catch them.

Then last week i was stalking a roe buck crawled hands and knees for the last 50yds poped my head round the post there he was standing broadside only 60yds away good backstop he was in good nick just about to lay the binos down then this f*****ing

guy stands up to my right and shouts to me what the hell do think youre doing it turned out he was wild camping with his girlfriend tucked in a corner of the field beside a fallen tree and was in the process of having a pee ,I of course explained

to them that i am the stalker on this estate and responsible for controling deer numbers ,then of they went on hissy fit sstating where i am slaughtering Bambis mum and dad ,I had to walk away keeping my cool back to the landy and bumped into the herd it seems he is having the same problem with walkers dogs runing loose and leaving trash behind them ,i suppose what i really need to know is what do other people on this site do in these situations because im at my wits end .

Oh well another good moan .

I know what it's like mate on my last estate most of it was right to roam and the rest had more footpaths then a town centre we had 2 villages within the shoot and the people with dogs just walked anywhere it was all leased and the walkers would just ask the farmers and would get the nod to walk where they wanted I used to pull my hair out it got to the point where you couldn't trap or shoot with a rifle in the end I couldn't deal with it and moved I know thats not much help mate but there is just no way round it
