If you don't live near the ground you are hunting and the rule requires each landowner to keep up their part of the fence, a farmer who lives there could really make it a nightmare. Make him mad and the cows could just happen to tear down YOUR HALF of the fence once a week or so.
Yea and his cows and his horses and his dogs could all start dying off mysteriously. I would HATE to get involved in anything like that but I think I could explain to the farmer that I could be as hard headed or mean and nasty as he wanted to be. That's a two way streeet!
