Having confronted a trespassing turkey hunter when I was archery hunting several years back was an eye opening experience. I suppose he looked at me holding only my bow and figured he had a shotgun and could run the show. It wasn't long into our conversation and I had a 12 gauge pointed at my head. Unfortunately for him, he didn't realize I had a gun concealed on me and although I really didn't feel like dying over trespassing,I also was much younger and felt more invincible. Shortly after, I was in possession of his shotgun and he was running through the woods in retreat. Not sure how I'd handle a similar situation today... Dying over someone trespassing may not be worth it. Unfortunately there are some serious criminals out there and many mentally unstable people as well.
