[QUOTE="KDM, post: 265389, member: 314"] Yep! Cleaned the bumper with corn more than once getting back to a chunk of public land, but that was the ONLY time I had an issue, it was with a single individual, I was younger, more confrontational, and it got pretty sporting. Looking back on it, I was pretty stupid to do what I did even though I was in the right. Just be [U][B]DAMN SURE[/B][/U] you know where you are and the section line is open and then decide if it's really worth it to wreck a guys crops!! As to the unfortunate situation with me, I did ask for permission from the adjacent landowner to access a chunk of public land through his yard as I didn't want to wreck any crops and was "energetically" chewed out for being a hunter, threatened with LE intervention, and the whole 9 yards for my trouble. Before proceeding I made a trip to the court house and made sure of things and then went hunting. About 30 minutes after driving down the crop, I met the local sherrif.
