RE: HELP, I need advice.
If you want to continue hunting this property, you may want to ask the land owner some questions about who they've given permission to. If they later found out you had suspicions and said nothing, they may kick you off the land as well. If he is doing this without permission, he doesn't respect you or the landowners rights. I know this guy is supposed to be a friend, but it sounds like he may not have learned his lesson the first time. And is he a friend or an aquaintence? Could you call him at 4:00 am to pull you out of a mud hole and he'd gladly help? Or tell you to kiss off?
Good luck in doing the right thing.
