I would make sure that every tree on your property line facing those stands had a posted sign on it. Hopefully you have some bedding areas on your property and I would definately put in a food plot.

I like the fence idea, change there patern so there blinds are worthless, the fence would be cheeper too. If you put up a blind make sure you put a little red light in the shadows so they think you are viedoing them!! That will keep them honest too.

do it man!

don't waste good $$ on putting upbox blindsthat you really won't use, just spend enough to put up some some sheets of plywood bill board style. Paint it camo on your side and bright pink on theirs . You can't tell me they don't know what their doing by crowding your line that close.

it's a damn shame people can be like that.

I deal with similar issues from people who get permission to hunt a farm to my south. I usually place a NO HUNTING sign right in front of their stand. The last two years they have actually cleared shooting lanes onto our property so I fill those back in, placed a scarecrow on our side of the property line by their standand last year I cut out the regulation about shooting deer on property that you do not have permission to hunt on and placed it on their stand seat. Their stand was gone the next day.

heres what id do and we do this at our cabin cause the people there are like that we dont hardly go anywhere in the woods except to our treestands so that we dont kick the deer of our property and trust me this works as long as you can create food shelter and water for the deer they shouldnt go any where except the freezer[8D]

Funny you should mention this...

We have a stand on a power line that runs through our property. This stand is about 50 yards from the property line, (this is my cousins stand), and we have hunted it for years. But about 2 yrs ago, the property next put a stand right beside ours, on the same power line. This made me angry... my cousin has climbed into the stand, waited for 3 hours, just to have a hunter on the other property drive his truck up to his stand, put out some corn, and scare all of the deer off of my cousins stand in the process. And what does this guy do? He waves "hi."

Maybe its just me, but if I were you, go for it. He has 3 stands on the edge of yalls property... and if he has a problem with you putting a stand up on the property line he needs to see a therapist.

I disagree with what RackLuster said,

Don't put a food plot on the border, put it as far from the edge of your property as you can.
We have similar problems and one solution was getting rid of 2 plots ringing the border and moving
them further in. So the deer sightings there have gone down own and they have moved one
bad stand location.

I don't see anything wrong with putting your stand back-to-back with theirs. I doubt it will
start a war that will hurt you since you have 40 and they have hundreds of other acres to bother
with. It also shouldn't hurt you on deer sightings since there is already a stand there, and
even if they don't move the stand, it will probably make them use that stand a lot less, or
think twice about putting another stand on the border.

Edit: Huntingson, same problem here, may have to try that scarecrow tactic.

Boy these are great. First thing I would do is see who is in charge of the lease. Talk it over with them with all the respect in the world. If this doesnt change things then I would start small & work you way up in the tactics you use to deter them.

I am a very private hunter & I hate running into other hunters when I am in the woods. There probably is nothing worse then at lights up theres a dude 15 feet away from you hunting. For both people this is a frustrating asspect. If you talk to them with respect they probably will understand. Dont threaten them if things dont go your way though just do your deeds. They will get the point.

I wonder if a strobe lightwould deter a deer on opening day. put one of those out by all the stands the night before opening day.
