Hi, just got from deer hunting with my husband. while i was sitting in the treestand i had time toi think about something that happened last sunday. i have a 13 acre small horse acreage with horses on it and several small 3 sided horse barn. while i was out there having a pony birthday party with 15, 4 year old kids and their parents my new neighbor who lives about 200 feet from my one horse barn starting shooting his guns. we all got a bit concerned but i didnt have time to go check it out. he owns only about 3 acres and he was shooting out back towards my pasture . now i know he has goats back there and chickens so today while sitting in that stand i started wandering where he was shooting at and at what? so i go in my pasture close to his house and find a target blown on my pasture and a small wood piece about 1/4 inch thick about 10 by 14 inches big on a tpost about 3 feet away from my horse pasture fence / he was shooting at that and using my pasture hill as a backstop. the more i think about it the more angry i get. i have horses out there , kids going out to get horses, people riding horses out there and he shoots into that not knowing who is in the trees or coming over the hills.
i decided to talk to the sheriff tomorrow. am i being unreasonable on this?
i really dont want to go over and talk to the new neighbor, we tried that the last couple of months because he lets his dogs run free all over the place and i told him i cant have his dogs on my property chasing horses or barking and chasing kids. we keep catching the dogs and bringing them to him and last time when we told him the dogs could get hurt that thats okay with him if he dies he dies.
i made sure i made pics of his setup, no backstop no nothing.
