Yes it can be worse. A friend of mine and his brother lost thier hunting ground a couple of years ago. Friends brother was married to the elderly woman's (who owned the land)daughter. I far as I know there has never been any ill feeling between any of them. Both brothers live 4 hours away from the land. We kinda think the farm manager talked to the older lady into leasing the land out......even her own son is not allowed to hunt it anymore. What can you do?? The well may not mess you up. It's still early enough that they can get done and clear out. I'd think the deer will be back.
