I obey the signage
As a person raised in the 70's and 80's, I have to come to the defense of my mother for making me mind other's properties. I frequently take a pistol or my 22 rifle with me when I travel to and fro the country side. Occasionally I pull into one of those areas that "appear" to be simply a quiet country road only to find that I have to go 5 miles into this remote road to get far enough away from property owners to plink.
Of course, I'm mindful, safe and careful, but it is rather a hump sometimes to a place to stop and crack off a few rounds when motoring to Mom's house or similar.
When I was a teenager, some family friends lost a son who was inadvertently trespassing and got shot by the landowner. So no trespassing for me. Please holler at me first, scream, yell, chase me with a car, whatever. But whatever you do, please don't shoot at trespassers. Some of them are genuinely lost, turned around or otherwise polite folks in a pinch.
