Hey guys this might seem ignorant but what is the saftey zone for a slug gun. this is the first year ill be using a slug gun in 12 yrs so im not up on all the facts. is it the same as a high powered rifle? Thanks .

 

[duckman76]

Yes all firearm safety zones are the same.

 

[proslider28]

ok thanks

150 yards,unless the owner gives you permission to be closer.

 

[proslider28]

oh ok so with owner permission you can be closer?

Alot of the homeower that let me hunt in their safty zones say they like inside shooting out.

 

[yotehunter74]

with permission you can sit right on their porch if they let you.... just a side note... it is not required but it is better to have written permission ..... may save some hassel if anything should arise...

Where I hunt, the Safety Zone is 2 feet out the door.. 2 foot of the rifle or shotgun has to be out the door before the trigger can be squeezed!

Best way to do it if you are not very good friends with the land owner is.. Get them to put it in Writting that you can hunt in thier Safety Zones!


Ever see land owners set on thier porch and drink Coffe and have a Rifle beside them in rifled deer season? They are hunting and Enjoying a cup of coffee right on thier own front porch!

we have a stand hung right along the yard where i hunt. my buddies grandmother isnt real happy that a buck destroyed her pine tree. one of the gangs gonna drop him right next to the bird feeder. we always shoot deer in the yard, its the best spot to be on a drive.

that can get you fined as baiting shooting a deer next to a bird feeder.................bob

That will get you fined. You can't hunt if there is a food source present.

Can't hunt over a food plot?

OMG!!! What is it with baiting??? Food plots are not considered baiting whether you agree or disagree. The only way a food plot would be considered baiting if you manipulate the food plot to make it more appealing to animals, cut/gather to one spot... This topic come up on every thread, give it a break...

Some do not read in the Comic Book about that there area where baiting is LEGAL.....and sometimes they just do not look at location under screen names!

 

[proslider28]

Why is it, i ask a simple question about a safety zone and it gets totally flipped around and now, its about baiting. i dont get it.

[deerpusher]

i love how safety zones go to baiting. lol

 

[jun1or]

I didn't mean for this to go spiriling out of control. I made a statement that, with the landownser permission, you can drop them next to the bird feeder. I wasn't referring to baiting, just using that as a generalization on closeness to the house. meaning in the yard. yes we can bait down here, but that isn't what the question was regaurding, nor what I was implying. I was only adding more light to the 150yds law, only being a starting point, not a standard.

I understood that junior, but i guess others didnt
