Tough spot to be in, but manageble. I have a small lease, and the majority of my stands are 50 yards at a minumum off the boundary to avoid these situations. I don't want someone doing it to me, so I don't do it to the bordering land owner. The first day I scouted my lease, I talked to the neighbor, and he was talking to me about how the guy who used to hunt my spot (trespassing BTW) had a set hung right on the fence, the tree it was in had the boundary fence tacked to it, and he was irritated about that. I told him I would do no such thing, and he promptly said "If you shoot one and it crosses the fence, you call me and we'll find him." So, good results can come of this, and UP makes a good point, you are hunting the boundary too. Fences have 2 sides.
