good lookin' dogs. not quite as good as my two Brittanies though! ;-)

I wasn't about to send my dog over to Mr Unhappy Pants place. figured he might take a shot at my dog!

I can deffinatly understand!

Ask the neighbor if you can get your bird. If the answer is no, call the game warden who will go on the property for you with or without permission (although they will probably tell you to avoid shots where your birds fall on the neighbo's property and forget about the lost bird).

You know I'm taking the outdoors safety class and they class says that your suppost to aks the land owner for permission and then unload your gun and leave it on your side of the fence and cross,

[Artos]

Agreed...

Get a dog, They are: low profile, quick, and for the most part the only way I care to bird hunt! Here are my bird huntin compadres!!!!!!!!! Otherwise everyone has pretty much made the point!!!

....only if the landowner is not around. GW will consider it the same thing "if he knows".....I asked.

not in Beeville. up north toward Wichita Falls. the guy was a jerk and our landowner assures he is "mental." always fun to be around Mr Profanity and his limited vocabularly. takes a special person to come out screaming at armed men, challenging their upbringing and saying not-so nice things about their mothers and heritage...

but we didn't go get our birds that fell in his yard (or ask his permission) ... and I did enjoy the one that I hit in the rudder who lost hydraulic pressure and dropped on his tin roof with a resounding BANG. very nice...

How close were you to his house? Heck I might have been POed myself if you were setting next to my house shooting

couldn't move away from the fence - would have been out in a bare field. we had our backs to Mr. Cranky Landowner

hmmmm......not knowing your exact situation but...I've had cases where I've planted a sunflower field or I have a water hole, my neighbor ain't got chit so they sit on my fenceline shooting doves that I've done the work to attract.

If that's the case...you shouldn't hunt it.

Jamie no like fenceline hunters (dove or deer)

now if they ask politely, I'll more then likely ask then to jump the fence and join us.

Its also a big no no to cross a fence line onto another mans property with a gun. I am not sure if its just a long rifle or any gun, but I have heard it becomes serious very fast with a firearm.

Either way its trespassing...
