Anyone see this guy today off 16 and 180. He was flying really low had deer run off from feeder because of him. Flew around for about an hour and a half. Any possibility it's the game warden. Who ever it is they need to stop that thing might be hard to fly with a 130 gr gmx in the tail rotor

Could have been doing a predator control or hog control hunt by a landowner which are both legal on the landowners property. Also could have been doing a game survey depending on how low and if he was flying a grid across the property. They would need an LOA to fly the property. Could have also very well be rounding up cattle which is done quite a bit by helicopter on larger ranches sometimes in South Texas. Pretty serious offense if you shoot at or hit the helicopter if you are serious about what you stated.

Used to have a rancher come through calling/gathering cattle early on Saturdays during the season with the siren. Guy was a jackass. Later found out his son was hunting/taking friends hunting during the week.

You don't even want to joke about shooting at an aircraft.

The comment about shooting at aircraft is not appropriate. Be careful what you say, some young person might take you seriously and commit a tragic mistake.

I had a red one flying low around me last year in Jack Co. Unfortunately I wasn't able to read his number as he flew directly above me and numbers are on the side.
Pissed me off too!

Got one at our lease too. The guy next to us has his own helicopter and likes to fly over our place at 5-5:30pm about 50 feet off the ground make a couple of passes over our place then go put it back in the hanger! I can see the hanger from my blind. Wouldn't mind seeing his a$$ bounce either.
