thank you for the great advice. i called the land owner this morning and we had a long talk i also just met with my buddy and we also talked. the bottom line is the land owner told me that no one other than myself has permission to hunt his property and also told me to let the other two hunters know and i did just that. they have until sat to remove there stands and they are not welcome back. my friend does not understand what he did wrong and says i was trying to hunt the place alone due to trail cam pics of two real big bucks on the land. i let him know they were my trail cams and i did the home work and that the pics had nothing to due with him losing permossion to hunt. i told him he over stepped his bounderies and was disrespectful not only to me but the land owner also at the end of our conversation he had the nerve to ask if he could hunt my land up north.. i just think some people will never get it!!!!!!

i have been hunting a private farm in western pensylvania for the last ten years and have had great success hunting the property for mature whitetails.about four years ago i got my good friend permission from the land owner to also enjoy the big bucks and have fun spending time with a good friend. Last season was a little aquard the first morning in the dark next to the truck where he introduced me to his good friend and said he had permission to also hunt the farm and asked if i would walk him to one of my stands on the way to my spot in the morning before light.i was reluctent but walked him to one of my stands i love to hunt and i think it was a mistake. the guy has taken over my stand and wont hunt anyother place on the farm. i miss hunting that stand but everytime i go there he is there. So this year i took a different aproach and told my buddy that i was taking the stand down and puting a new one in that spot because i was going to hunt the area this year. he asked me not to saying his buddy would fix my old rusty ladder stand but i said no and took the stand down.His friend went to the farm and complained to the landowner who had my back on the deal.also my buddy has been taking to many doe ive seen a huge decline in deer on the farm in the last two years the land owner is not happy now saying there are to many people there and my buddy is there everyday after work. does anyone have any suggestions on how to handle this without losing my friend and a great spot to hunt?
