Oooohhhhh. So, because he was there first, that gives him the right to do whatever he wants. Nice attitude!

The ladder stand looked brand new to me. For all I know, he put it up the day before we found it.

Here's the bottom line...I find it somewhat un-ethical and in poor judgment to put a stand where his is. I myself wouldn't do it because of safety concerns and fear that my neighbor would not like it. Evidently, some of you don't think that way. "His land, he can do whatever he wants"! Well, I'm glad those folks on here don't hunt near me. I'm all about being friendly and neighborly and that's what I'll try to do, but if he can't see that his stand is in a place that will cause tension, then other tactics will have to be considered.
