and informed me that I can no longer hunt his property. I bought my 5 acre lot from him and let him farm 3 acres, free of charge, for 12 years. Now his boy has taken over the farming operation and his buddies are going to hunt the area I was in, may be 15 acres of woods on an 80 acre plot. Nice place that the deer ran from cover to cover.
2 friggin' weeks before deer season and I am S-O-L. It was a good run while it lasted. 9uck!! Is the dad still the owner? He may not know about your screwing. Perhaps a call about WTF?

Whatever guys. 🤷♂️
Just trying to come up with a solution. I don't have all the facts or all of the answers, IF there is one. Sometimes it's just time to go to a state forest. I did that for years.

You have 5 acres. Bait them in. Feed heavy. You might be surprised how many deer you can pull over to your place.

Private land owners make the rules for their land, but it would have been nice of him to let you know a few months ago so that you could plan accordingly.

I'm a farmer. We have have several independent parcels of land that we allow to be hunted. We use a written agreement found on the VA. DWR website and start with a one year agreement with the option to extend if everyone's happy. So far only had to cancel one. For the right to hunt they agree to keep watch on the place and call me if they see a problem. They are allowed to have one other person with them and I like hunters that hunt year round, fall and spring seasons with some varmint and groundhog shooting thrown in, keeps more eyes on the place. A few have helped us cleanup trash, repair fences and roads and put up no trespassing signs. Having all the game cameras out there has been good for us too, actually helped the sheriff locate a couple of atv thieves once. Our game warden is kept informed of who is allowed to hunt on which property. My son is in the process of taking over the farm so at some point in the near future it will be his signature on that paper instead of mine.

A friendly call back with a kind reminder might not hurt....better yet a pie delivered to his door and a "get aquatinted. " . What kind of pie? Like one of them creampie's you like to give the alter boys? 😁 And, what does aqua tinted mean anyway?

A lot of people here (not me) would say that if you only have 5 acres, no matter where you set up you would be hunting too close to the property line.
Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

Things change, we’ve all probably gone through it, I know i have.
I had to tell a man and his grown son to get their stands and vacate my property a couple months ago. They have been a problem for 10 years. Terrible hunters, piss poor ethics, I finally had enough. The father actually argued that he actually had a ‘right’ to hunt since he had been hunting there since my uncle gave them permisssion when he was the owner.

The father actually argued that he actually had a ‘right’ to hunt since he had been hunting there since my uncle gave them permisssion when he was the owner. I have found that if you let someone hunt on your place they will assume they own the hunting rights. The worst mistake I ever made was giving a semi retarded mama's boy neighbor the right to hunt on our place. He violated every rule I put on him. He shot over onto the neighbor's place, threatened a neighboring land owner with murder, drove his ATV on the place when I was hunting, made 15 or more ATV trips a day looking for deer, was just a general nuisance. When I gave him the boot he wanted to kill me. It escalated to where the sheriff came out and killed him. Except for my kids and brother in law the only one I would consider giving permission to hunt or shoot would be someone I already hate since that's how it's going to end up. There are other cases where I have had to terminate a hunting lease due to family wanting the land and it creates an ugly situation every time. If someone lets you hunt you for free you had best kiss their ass and help them in the off season a little.

Yesterday we were up checking on a little bunch of cows on our creek pastures.
Pop over a hill and see five orange fuucktards crossing the fence. Fancy dogs and Orvis doctor crowd.
I about came uncorked but remained civil.
[bleep] anyway.

You do understand that you are asking to hunt in someone's back yard, their home...right?
