Does he sell ammo?
If I said no it would really throw this thread off tangent.

She has as much right to use her property as he does on his. Are you saying she can’t take a walk on her own property because her neighbor wants to hunt his property? That’s crazy if someone can tell me I can’t take a walk on my own property. It’s not like she’s banging a pot with a spoon or blasting a radio. I actually think she could listen to a radio there or take a phone call there if she wanted to. As long as she’s not violating any noise ordinances. I can’t get a neighbor to stop playing music REALLY loud. I sure don’t see how the cops are going to tell her not to do what she’s doing.

Other places I've been that are more rural its more like 2 or 3:1 of good people to karens (for Maryland. It is my understanding other places aren't nearly so bad).
My experience growing up in WV was that horse folk were pretty amenable and laid back. MD was a different experience and has continued to be for my time here.
In WV, people who own horses either
- Live in the countryside and have acres upon acres that they own which they ride on
- Live in the city/suburbs and keep their horses at a stable which owns acres upon acres of land where they either ride in a ring or trail ride.
Those that live in the country know that deer season means folks will be in the woods and they respect that. They'll stick to heavily traveled trails in "safe zones" of state and federal lands if they're not riding on their own land, or just ride in rings or around their property until the season is over.
What gets me here in MD, is that there are places like Little Bennet Regional Park which are really and truly set up for horses. They have horse camping areas, horse trailer parking, and multiple horse access points around the property, but folks will not go there or other horse-friendly areas in the region, and instead go to WMAs or NRMAs to ride during hunting season and prevent hunters from being able to Sunday hunt on what are, first and foremost, game lands.
She’s a centaur? If she looks like the one below tell her you know a guy in Baltimore hung like a horse.
As a horse owner, and I am not the only one on the forum, I take umbrage at the characterizations of all horse owners as being nut cases. Just as I would for a group of horse owners saying all hunters were poachers who go around shooting up road signs. And every year there are some horses shot and the horsey press always makes a big deal out of it because sensationalism sell papers.
If she was a reasonable horse owner I would suggest you talk to her and explain that you are not going to harm her horses and how your shots will be aimed away from her property etc. Then tell her when you will be hunting and that there could be gun shots in case she would like to turn out her horses in a different field so they don't get startled. You could also suggest she take your number to call you in case her horses get out and might be on your property so you can be extra careful.
Now for a practical suggestion because you indicate she is not reasonable. Since you said she stole someones tree stand why don't you put up a tree stand near her property line, not to obvious but where she can see it, and put a hidden game cam to watch the stand. You said your property is posted so if you can get photographic proof of her trespassing and stealing you can turn it over to the police and she will be to busy defending herself to bother with your hunt.
Maybe it's time to set up some targets and have a MDS target shoot and BBQ
It's not against the law to hunt naked on your own property.
Is it?

Put it on the perimeter of your property where she walks. She'll stop soon enough.....
It’s good to get sun on your balls. I can write a doctor’s note....It's not against the law to hunt naked on your own property.
