When someone shines deer they are most likely shinning private property. This could be viewed the same as tresspassing.

That's ridiculous. So if I look out in someone's field it is the same as tresspassing? So I am using a light.. or a camera lens, or a spotting scope.. and on and on. WHat if I am turning a corner and my headlights sweep acoross a deer in a field. Now I am trespassing? COME ON! That's the kind of thinking that keeps taking away our rights.
Stopping recreational shining is in no way going to curtail poaching. Poachers do not care if there are laws against shing they are already doing something illegal. It just takes something away from legal people based on what bad people do. It's a bad idea and penalizes people who are doing nothing wrong.
I get pretty riled up when I see laws that penalize good people for what bad people have done.
