It also sounds like your friend of 20 years has no issue with lying to you. That should be your first clue. He has no ethics and has no respect for you.
Why in the world would either of you want a deer someone else shot. Are they that rare ?
Why would you lease land and then set boundaries within that lease ? What purpose does this serve ? Do you put up little signs so the deer know where the sanctuary is ?
