Get you a sign from the Goverment trapper like this and post them on all the gates. I like the idea, but unfortunately, not all these guys use gates, especially many of the hog doggers that just cut fences. I would also take barb wire and run it randomly across a few of your roads a few feet off the ground, I guarantee that will stop them and force them to seek medical attention running into if full speed at night.
Having been through a barbed wire fence on a UTV (as is being driven in the OP), I can tell you that your guarantee is pretty meaningless. Well, I am pretty sure you can have traps and snares on your property for beavers, coyotes, etc.
Some barb wire across a ranch road is called a fence where I come from so I would be willing to have a court date especially here in Texas with a jury if someone got injured riding around a night and just didn't know where I have fences on my ranch.
A fence is one thing, but running a single strand across a road is not apt to be considered a fence. In fact, it may be considered a booby trap. Here are several noted examples. http://www.syracuse.com/news/index.ssf/2013/09/marijuana_grower_killed_booby_trap_albany_ny.htmlhttp://www.theblaze.com/stories/2014/05/...colorado-trail/http://www.thedenverchannel.com/news/loc...uth-platte-parkhttp://bajasafari.blogspot.com/2008/09/baja-races-threatened-by-barbed-wire.html

Looks like a guy kneeling in the bed aiming a rifle toward the feeder.
Listen for the sound of a ATV while you are there hunting as some make a distinct loud sound.
It's someone local for sure.

Once i learned that i didn't "NEED" to kill something, and that if i did kill something all the fun stopped and work began, i was a much better hunter.

I can almost make out a deer in front, with a main beam showing. At least that is what my mind is telling me.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it.
Don't text and drive.

I feel your pain I have found evidence of poachers on my land also , if you have Hawthorn or Honey locust trees or any kind of thorn trees cut down branches and put them on the roads as a roadblock and on trails hidden covered with leaves or grass they will easily get flat tires or stabbed in the foot just remember where you put them.

just had the 1 strand wire go to the grand jury in Tyler. Killed a kid on a 4 wheeler. The guy said he was tired of people dumping on property. Grand jury no billed him. Doesn't mean it's over. Law suite sure to follow.
Photo is kind of like looking at those old ultrasound pictures when my wife was pregnant. Never had enough imagination to see what the doctor was talking about. But I see a dog in the front basket. a guy in the drivers seat, looks like a guy in the back,and another guy beyond the driver outside the cart thru the windshield.

Get you a sign from the Goverment trapper like this and post them on all the gates. I have plenty of these in red and white and they are for M-44s (cyanide guns), let me know if you would like a couple. Send a PM with your mailing address and I'll get you them.

M-44s (cyanide guns),
Looked them up. Wow what a diabolical little device. Would certainly do the trick.
To be determined
