It's especially difficult if you have recently purchased land on which
local folks have hunted for decades. In my experience, old customs and
"access rights" die hard and can be met with resistance, so do be
careful when trying to convince armed strangers to stay off your
property...

I just wanted to thank everyone who responded. Many good suggestions.
I have contacted TARA and was informed that I should post my property
with the permission only signs at 100 yds all the way around the
property. Another way to post the property was to post every 250 yds
with blue strips of paint 1"x4" every 50 yds.
Apparently in the state of Tennessee a hunter must have written
permission from the property owner and it must be on his person. That
is for private lands. I know this person does not have written
permission from myself, my neighbor or the properties that back up to
the area. Therefore he should be no where within a 2 mile radius of my
farm with a gun.
I guess I will be spending a day posting my property and trying to hold
up my end of the deal as if a fence all the way around your property
isn't enough to establish that it is private. Gone are the days that
you have any rights as a property owner.
If I lived in a residential area and a man was walking around my yard
with coon dogs and a gun the police would be on him like white on rice.
Because I live in the county and my yard is 90 acres it is ok for the
man, his dogs and his gun to be walking around my yard. Just doesn't
seem fair.
