This is what set me off yesterday. Weve been hunting 2 farms, 1-2100 acre, 1-650 acre. No one else has permission to be on these farms but our " group" . Ive got 6 sets of steps set-up on these 2 farms.

Walked in to the first spot yesterday afternoon,, orange peels on the ground right under the stand(from the morning). Pull those steps and head out. Get to the road, see a member of the group in his truck,,, with one of his co-workers,, he sent him into that stand in the morning and hunted a different stand(also one of mine).

Asked are you guys heading home,, nope we are going too hunt the farm stand and the one on the point,, again 2 of my stand set-ups. I say o.k. im going to the pond,,, I get no,, so and so is in there already. What the %$#&,, thats another set of my steps theyre using, making a total of 5. Go to the tree with my 6th set of steps,, not there,, theyve been moved 20 yards. I try too hunt the stand and realize Ive got no shooting lanes and its hard to draw my bow from this tree. Pull my steps out and leave. Found out the " lefty" of the group hunted that spot 2 days earlier and he moved the steps because he was having trouble drawing his bow from that stand.

Go to the farmers house and tell him what was going on, and that im pulling everything of mine out. Im not doing the work for these guys to screw me over anymore! While im sitting there talking to him, the truck pulls up. Guy says my buddy from work just shot a doe out of your stand,, give me your doe tag! I say no-way,, put yours on it. He didnt apply,, neither have a doe tag. Tell the farmer,, this is why,, he understands completely!!!
