RE: Non-res landowners
I've talked to alot of people about this and some ideas have popped up.
1) make sure the land has a house, rent the house, now the renter becomes the "groundskeeper".
2) rent the ag fields to a local farmer and make him the groundskeeper.
3) lease the property to an outfitter with the understanding, lets say, only two bucks allowed off the property per year. 130 inch minimum. He can hunt it when I'm not there. Maybe that would be a win- win situation. He's keeping an eye on your land and the deer, while your getting paid for him to lease it.
