Had this happen on public land once, over a mile from the dog area. Guys came up and asked if I shot "their deer." Told them yes, and I had already called thr GW about someone running dogs in the still unit.

I wasn't there, but the guy might have just been genuinely curious and not being derogatory about it. When us and our neighbors ran dogs, they shot deer infront of ours and we shite deer in front of theirs. There was always some frustration involved but never any spite or hard feelings. We even went on each other's property to find deer or catch dogs sometimes without anybody caring
Damn those were the good old days, when the other camps would call us if they caught our dogs, we'd call them if we caught theirs, ate supper together and talked about the deer we shot in front of each other's dogs over a card game

You sound like one of those type of hunters that think that they own every deer they see on their cameras because you "put in the time scouting and making food plots" or some shite like that. Running dogs with a bunch of old hunters and listening to their knowledge about where the deer could/should be and what locations to hunt depending time of day and part of the season taught me more about deer habits and hunting in general than any amount of scouting or sitting in a stand ever did. Not to mention I got to see more of the woods, walking with the men driving the dogs, than I ever did still hunting. To each his owm but my experiences dog hunting were the best fun hunting (anything) in my life.

Actually the state owns them because I don't have a high fence up

Your statement is so true. Dog hunters get a bad rap and are called fat and lazy, and some of the standers may be. But the guys that own and walk the dogs know their shite. They know where to lead them to get a jump. One of my favorite parts is when the young guys walk the dogs and the old timers are on the walkie-talkie telling them where to walk to get a deer up.
I'm getting antsy for December 6th just thinking about it.

No. I just don't want them running dogs in to my land. If it's an honest accident whatever. They are letting their dogs go on 20 or 30 acres knowing they are going to go in to the surrounding properties. They also hunt the roads.

Exponentially more fun than sitting on a stand IMO. I quit deer hunting when they stopped the dog hunting in our area.
Yeah. It's so fun to be sitting in my stand and have Joe Jackass run dogs through my lease and then finding a young dead buck with the head cut off on the other side and nothing else taken off of it.
And thanks.

Still hunting is walking the woods.

Did someone start a dog hunting thread where a high fence was mentioned? Hang on....

Where the hell do you people hunt that you have these problems? Sounds like the anus of Louisiana to me.

We hunt on 1500 acres in Clara, MS
this past year the dog runners were down the whole hwy with trucks parked on either side of the road for miles and miles...
my buddy was riding his four wheeler coming back from a morning hunt and he could hear the dogs on our property...rode just off the road on a powerline onto our property, and shot one the 8 point the dogs were running on our land...ol boys gave him attitude about doing it and he told them next time it would be the dogs.
Turkey poachers are real bad in our area as well...
We fixed all of our problems in January by granting a Sheriff's deputy(next in line to be sheriff)and his handicapped father a turkey only membership to our place(his Dads favorite thing in the world to do)...the next day he drives around to all of the dog hunters homes, locals that like to hunt others lands and known turkey poachers in the area, and notified them that he was a member of this lease and that any issues would be dealt with swiftly and without prejudice.
We have trail cams at all common entrances to our place and there hasn't been a single unknown vehicle on our lease since...

Man I feel for y'all that have to deal with shite like that. We typically have a few very minor problems every now Like the occasional guy shooting off the road at night, but nothing like what y'all red dirt people deal with as far as people go. We generally don't have people acting like our land is public. Never did as far as I know.
We do have a good relationship with LDWF and the local police guys so I'm sure that helps. The game warden is always a welcomed sight.

I definitely would've given him a piece of my mind and notified him next time I would be shooting his dogs instead of the deer.
We had dog issues last yr on a place in ark I was in. Over 2k acres, the one time we caught them they had crossed the whole property.

I like when they have the orange collars on, it makes it easier to pick them up in the scope in the long grass..

Nobody ever enjoyed it more than I did. Had 40-50 beagles that could smoke a deer. Didn't care what bunch killed the deer in front of them as long as they stopped the race. Then times changed-sold my dogs and just still hunt. Don't really miss it but I would still love to hear a good race. Yea I still got 2 of the CB's and a whip stuck somewhere around the house.

I have very little experience actually dog hunting. But we basically spent all day trying not to get stuck and trying to catch dogs. It wasn't what I would call fun, but different.
We had a lease in Union parish when I was a kid. I honestly don't think the dog hunters that surrounded us EVER picked up their dogs. There were races to be heard all hours of the day and night from October to February. We always caught folks with guns out the window on parish roads in the middle of our lease.
For the most part our guys would catch the dogs and we held them in an old hay loft until we had 8 or 10, then call the owner to pick them up. The owners would get pissed if we fed them. "Gotta keep'em hungry, make 'em run them deer."
I have nothing against it as long as it's done right.
