Agreed....although I may try once...a stern threat that "next time there will be no warning"...there are many pieces to this puzzle....good fencing, locked gates, no trespass signage, property monitored by camera signage, house/barn/structure alarm system signage, wireless game cam. Have the game warden's name and number handy in your cell phone....so you can use the game warden's name if you catch and are talking with the offenders....also use your cell phone to take pictures of the vehicle, vehicle license plate number, and the offenders. I have NRA medallions on the front gate to send a message that there are people beyond the gate that are locked and loaded. Of course we can only do so much because we all know that a dedicated human can break into Fort Knox if they are determined enough.

I had this sign made for my barn:
