My grandpa was a farmer, he was very protective of his land and livestock. He was also very hot headed but would live up to his word. He had a few altercations with trespassers in his time. He would confront the trespasser man to man. In not such nice words he would make it very clear what might happen to the trespasser if he ever caught him red handed. It worked for him.
I remember a time we were turkey hunting early one morning. We heard shotgun shots up north. We hauled butt up to the north end of the property and there were two guys hunting on his property. He confronted them. Told the to get there you know what off his property and he better not catch them trespassing again. As they headed north to the fence one of the trespassers said, "and what are you going to do about it old man?" Grandpa shot his shotgun at the guys feet and said, "next time I won't miss!" We never had another problem....
Not that I condone this, it scared the pee out of me.
