When THOSE guys quit caring about their land because they can’t enjoy it the way they want to, due to all their neighbors having greedy and itchy trigger fingers, the entire state will suffer from it, including those ppl riding their shirt tails off their hard work. It’s true whether anyone wants to admit it or not.

I'm with you 100 percent but even with the several thousand acres I manage there's always gonna be neighbors regardless if you have 100 or 5000 acres. The only 100 percent way you'll ever manage a place like you want it is by fencing it.

That’s why I encourage cooperatives and great relationships. Work with each other rather than against. Nobody wins if we all have the mentality that I’m going to do what I want and dig in even harder every time it’s brought up. That goes both ways, for trophy hunters and meat hunters.

Some people who own land have hunted the same way for years and are not gonna change. 2 land owners that border us might shoot a 150 today then shootna spike tomorrow. They just do as they please because they can.
