It depends on the state as to what's legal. Here the board with nails is considered a "trap" and you are not only liable for damages but can face criminal charges too.
We had a neighbor kid here about 10 years ago who was trespassing on other peoples property. Land owner (arrogant BTO) shot the kids tires on his pickup while the kid was hunting. The land owner was charged with criminal damage to property and discharging a firearm for a roadway and when the trial was over he got probation, a large fine and was ordered to pay restitution to the kid. The bad part was when the cops got there the kid, who's truck was parked in the right of way was at his truck and no actually saw him trespass. So he faced no charges.
