I have a hay field of @ 20 acres with another 10 being hardwood timber. All of the property lines are fenced as this area was once a cattle farm. I do not have a tree on my South boundary that I can put a stand on but my neighbor does. I can actually put my stand on a tree on the fence line that is behind the fence and once in the stand I am setting over my property. The land behind me is grown up cut over you couldn’t drive a skidder through so shooting or seeing a deer on that tract is out of the question. I told the landowner who is a friend of mine I wanted to put a stand on a tree of his. He told me no problem. He also told me I could hunt his if I wanted to. I told him I had all I needed and thanked him for letting me put a stand “over the line”.

On this same tract, a resident landowner has 2.5 acres and a trailer. He shares a North and South property line with me. He has a small opening next to my fence and a chair he sits in when he hunts. His chair was facing the green field we broke and planted this year last week when I went out to look at the field. Can’t seem to ever win them all. Win one and lose one. I don’t know if he would kill a deer on me or not, but I don’t want to have to find out.
