HOA notice for being a baw

I’ve lived in this neighborhood in Williamson Co. TN since 2020. I shoot my bow a lot and have no one living behind me. I’m incredibly safe with where I setup to shoot. I got a letter this morning saying that they’ve shutoff standing on the sidewalk where I get my 30 yard pin work in and have to stay in my yard. That sucks. But what they really didn’t like was me skinning deer in my driveway using my receiver hitch and tarp to do so. This isn’t a new thing. I’ve killed several deer and turkeys over the last few years and have very limited space to process them. My driveway is the most efficient place to do it. I have no doubt that one of the California transplants complained. This may expedite moving to a farm. FTR the bylaws do not address deer processing specifically. I imagine they’re going to add it. 
Any of y’all had to deal with anything like this?

My favorite example was f Cali libs freaking out is this:
Pappys gun range of tinker Creek Road in rock hill South Carolina has had a gun range for over 30 years.
A loon moved in behind his gun range and he knocked on her door one day.
He said ma’am this gun range has been here for 30 years and I just want you to know you’ll be hearing some noise. Are you OK with that? She said yes she was fine.
Two weeks later, she calls police because she says a bullet struck her roof. There were no holes in the roof. There were no bullets in the yard, but they did find a shell casing. Obviously, she threw the shell casing in the yard saying that it hit her roof. But she’s not very smart because the shell casing does not fly with the bullet.
The best part about this is he nipped this in the bud by doing this.
He knocked on her door one day later and said ma’am if you call the police on my gun range one more time I will sell it to section 8 housing of South Carolina.
She is yet to call to this day.

So glad I don’t have to deal with that bullshite. I’ve cleaned a pig hanging from my Rogue CrossFit rack, a deer from my pull-up bar inside the garage. My old neighbors always come and check out what I’m doing.
Time to mount an eyebolt n your garage to clean them there.

Live in a yuppie South BR neighborhood with active HOA. My daughter and I shoot our bows in the backyard from the lake bank into the yard. Have cleaned ducks, fish, and deboned quartered deer in my driveway. Never cleaned a deer out there though. Haven't had a complaint yet.
I was on the HOA board for a couple years. President complained since I was sinking Christmas trees behind my house in the lake every other year. Told her no problem, will do it at night every time I do it now so she wouldn't know. She didn't particularly like that answer.

HOAs aren’t my cup of tea, and might not be a popular opinion here, but to be completely honest these don’t seem like the most ridiculous things to not want going on in a subdivision. Maybe you’re being careful but what about the next guy who sails one over the fence, or when someone’s yorkie pukes deer guts in the livingroom? I’ve lived in neighborhoods and it was a pain in the arse but I made life choices and set my priorities to have places to do my baw shite.

The type of person that probably was freakign out to even touch the shell casing becuase it might hurt her.

FWIW I agree with you. I’m kinda shocked it took this long for someone to complain.

I raised two hogs a year for harvesting in a subdivision with hoa. I’d pick a nice cool fall Sunday to kill it. I’d crank espn NFL pregame and make one shot count with a .22 mag revolver. Afterwards, I’d muscle it over to the swing set I built for my kids using 4x4’s, hoist it up and process it. Nary a visit was made by hoa or any trouble makers. I did have this older coonass lady stop by and ask if I were doing a cochon de lait, but no trouble makers.

Don’t concede. Get on the board.
You want to keep your freedoms get involved!

I'm in the same county and you bring up good topics. I set up my cable and gambrel under my deck, and it's enclosed. When the light is right, you can see in there. I've cleaned 10 or 12 in 6 years under there, no complaints yet. I always flop it out to spray out the cavity at the end of my driveway, so people see stuff. And we're on a very exposed corner.
I want to get a bow, and I was thinking that I can safely shoot up hill, towards under the deck. I could get a 30 yard shot. I don't know if anyone would care.
We do have an HOA, but my wife is on the board.

$70 on Amazon. It has walls so they can't see what you are doing. They can "think" they know what you are doing all they want, but they can't prove it.

Are you really surprised by this?

Would it be that hard to clean it in the backyard?
HOA's are the worst. We have contracts to do work on a few HOA's in town and everyone on the board (at least behind the financials) are usually idiots. And they throw a fit over anything. We've had homeowners call our office letting us know that our carpenters front tires are touching the grass in the yard... and it wasn't even their house. I'm surprised you got to so this for as long as you did.

Sounds like the best plan.

Physically, no. But there would be no way I wouldn’t be seen.

It was a ten year plan. Might be a 3 year plan now.

Maybe seen by less people? Maybe some that don't care as much.

Same. I'm on year four of mine now. Just thankfully don't live in an HOA. Just working for them made me realize real quick that I couldn't put up with it. The older the community is the worse it gets too. So many older folks just have nothing better to do than sit around and complain about what's going on in their neighborhood.

Technically, yeah I could wait til the wee hours of the night, but I don’t want to do that. I had a good run. Time to come up with a new method/location.
There’s a pretty decent 3d range not far from the house I can start going to as well.

I am not a lawyer and one may be able to answer this better than I can, but i really don't think they can update the HOA bylaws after the fact without approval.
I had my HOA send me a letter about my chicken coop. According to bylaws people can not have play sets in their yard.
I went around documenting every instance of a play set and everything else I could find in a letter that was also signed by one of my best friends that is an attorney. Basically asked if all these people had received letters as well or if they were looking to pick a fight with a single homeowner.
They never said another word.

There’s a guy in a neighborhood next to me that obviously isn’t a good shot or as safe as you. I was riding in my pasture and noticed something sticking through the 6’ vinyl neighborhood fence. Upon closer investigation there were at least 4 broad heads sticking through the fence.

I'd write a letter, something like this:
To whom it may concern,
Eat a bag of dicks.
Sincerely,

Don’t get it twisted, I’ve got a couple boards to replace too.
But even on a straight up arrant arrow, everything beyond my target is an embankment with no dwelling beyond that. It’s nothing but private property farmland.

I've never understood cleaning an animal at home unless you are fortunate enough to hunt on the property you live on. If you don't have facilities where you hunt just find a tree. Hell if you don't have those or kill something big it's not difficult to do with the animal laying on the ground. You don't even have to gut it. Gets the meat cooled down quicker too.
