In some cases BOB, I won't mind allowing a person hunting it... as long as he will hunt it with a good wind and be scent conscience about it. But a few guys I hunt with? Nada... there are some that will hunt my stand every waking hour if I give permission. After a few days of sitting on the ground in the area, they usually move on. Problem for me is that if our guys find one of my stands, some automatically think it's a good spot - and will often burn that area out for the remainder of the year. Thankful we have a rule in place that all stands that are not club stands have to be hunted with permission of the owner.
