Legitimate folks in the oil and gas industry dont want to be shot or shot at so they put logos are their trucks and give notice to the landowner. I would still be suspicious of the second truck, but if you look closely it does have some sort of logo or emblem on the extended cab doors of the truck on both sides. Can see it fairly well ( not readable though) in the pic by the feeder but if you look closely, you can also barely see it in the second pic. Propably wouldn't notice it in the second pic if a person hadn't already seen it in the first pic. Looks to be the same emblem on both sides. Oil/gas line trucks often carry a 4-wheeler around for checking lines in rough areas. But like everyone else I would still want to know what the heck they're doing just driving around, especially if there is no line in that particular area. Bill

I checked with the hunters leasing the place next door. They said not them. I did some calling around. Comanche Electric had a contractor checking the power poles for rot. They said he should not have lifted the gate off the hinges to cut through the pastures. More and more reasons to have game cameras all over the place and not just on the feeders. I agree with a previous suggestion to locate a camera to pick up the license tags. I have a bad feeling that with the economy tanking that theft is going to increase as people get more desparate.

If we have a well on your place and the lease is current we have access 24/7. The exception might be a large game ranch where you have to check in, but it will be with security and not a landowner. We do have to stick to the lease roads though. On the other hand the really old leases don't have lease roads so it can get to be a guessing game if you've never been on the property. I have seen a few really old wells tucked way back in the back of a property with no roads within a mile. That second truck doesn't look to be an oilfield truck. No tool boxes and just a half ton. If it is it would be a company mans truck, but he would have no reason for a 4 wheeler. My bet would be a surveyor.

Saw a guy on an ATV use the gate right near my blind, and then a couple weeks later two gigantic trucks were driving all over the property, and then drove through that same gate while I was in the stand. Talk about the ground shaking, and never saw any deer for the several weeks they were in the area. When they finally left the deer were everywhere. They pay big bucks to look for oil, and they will drive all over your property and there isn't much you can do about it. I'd say that last truck was oil field and they might have messed up and got on your place by mistake.

But, good advice for those who are leasing... As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind...Let your gun therefore be your constant companion of your walks--Thomas Jefferson

I worked for an oil & gas company (#2 in the US) for 30 years and we never had marked trucks. Do you know how many folks would TRY to have an accident with a company such as this for lawsuit purposes?
