Tell him that the property was bought with the intention of creating memories with your dad and that you were hoping to improve the hunting. If the guys that big of a deer hunter I'm sure he'd understand.
My neighbor is so crazy about antlers, he put his own brother in the hospital over a 150 inch eight pointer that his brother shot on his "fathers" land and then went to jail over it. That was 10 years ok, then he went to jail again three years ago after he punched his brother, broke his bow, glasses and binocks.
See My neighbor is like any typical family in WI or Midwest. The boys were taught to grow up, buy the farm from the parents and then when their boys got older they were supposed to buy it from them. It was a way the parents could retire and stay busy if they wanted too. Since the one brother (my neighbor) decided to stick around he bought part of the farm from his parents and the other brother left and didn't want any part of the farm but still wanted to hunt his father's land. So the father didn't sell all of his land only 3/4 of it. Well my neighbor doesn't think that was right. So if my neighbor catch's his brother on his land. You know what hits the fan. It's sad but true. If he doesn't do what we want with the field, I guess it's not the end of the world, but I will be asking someone else to take it over.
