Default Keeping Landowners happy

It seems like land is harder and harder to come by. Hardcore and I own a bit, and then we hunt some land that we don't own. The land that we don't own is in a very desirable location, so we are always trying to keep our landowner happy, he heats his house with wood, so every year we get a few loads of wood to his house. Today was the day that we went out and cut a few pickup trucks full of wood. Our landowner was very happy. He only allows us to hunt his land and we are very thankful! Here are some pictures of our day, Hardcore cuts and I load. I am TIRED tonight. Who knew hunting could be so hard. Anyway, just wondered what you'all did to preserve your land to hunt on?

Amen hoytgirl and a great reminder to us all.

I keep my landowner in bologna from my harvests not to mention I pay for all the seed etc for the food plots I plant not only for myself but for him. I took him out on his land yesterday for rifle.

He's afraid of heights so I set stands to accomadate that. Yesterday after the hunt we were talking and he thanked ME, I was flattered, he told me if it weren't for me, he'd give up hunting. The last buck he shot that hangs on his wall, (only one) I pushed to him.

I try to take care of him, I love the spot and have exclusiveness as well.

I usually give the landowner a deer or 2. He is part Indian but doesn't hunt and won't eat beef. Between me and the kids we usually have a deer or two to spare, but this year the kids didn't fare well so I had to stiff the guy.

I told him I'd make some jerky for him. He understood about the deer. Said someone else gave him a couple.
