Thanks for the advice.
The way the swamp is positioned he will access his stand from one side and I will access mine from the other. I have walked around the swamp and there are only two good trails out. He is camped out over one and I have found a good spot over the other. If anything this guy would help my chances because if deer wind him they should circle around my way. On the other hand if a buck walks by him thats one less buck that I will be able to shoot. There is tons of room on my land( 75 acres) but this is absoutly the best spot I have seen and I have been all over the land, twice. There are last years rub lines, fresh tracks an old scrape and a mud trail.
Chance are good that I will never see this guy, I just dont know it I want to chance it.

I think for bow season you are OK being 75 yards from one another, but I would prefer to hunt farter apart. I'd approach the guy and discuss the situation or coordinate hunting times/dates, etc. I have often hunted with my buddy and we've been about 50 yards apart. We both have the same style, hunt smart, quietly, hardly move in the stand, etc. It's neat to watch deer come into the area and be too far away from you, but watch the action first hand as your buddy manuevers and gets a kill. Sometimes I think this is better than actually bagging one yourself!

Big-

75 acres is not a ton of land depending on the terrain. If it's my families land ex. my fathers land - I'd ask him what to do. He gave permission.

If it's my "family land" ex. wifes cousins brothers land and he don't hunt. then you should let the guy know that you are going to hunt it, where you will be and he can decide if he wants to move his stand or not.

Permission land is drying up all over the place. Family usually comes first and most guys know that - that's the way it is.

-Disclaimer, If this guy mends fences, farms the land, or helps your family out on a regular basis to secure his hunting spot- Just because you're family, IMO, doesn't give you the ethical rite to "kick" him off his stand.

That's your opinion. If I own anything (which I do) that gives me the ethical right to do whatever I want with it, including kicking someone off or just not letting them hunt. If he had put in his work for this year I would let him continue to hunt this year but I would inform him that next year he's out on his can. Myself or my family would have paid for the right do that

SA-

Please don't read anything into my disclaimer-

It's not Bigs land it's his "family land". How would you like your relative (IE family) kicking off your best friend who helps out on the farm, was in your wedding, was there for you when you got divorced, takes your kids fishing, etc, etc? Big should make sure he's in the right on that issue prior to making the call. You took that out of context and applied ownership where there is only family given permission.

If the guy drives on the fields, is an unsafe hunter, and is a general butt crack, then by all means take his stand down and leave it in his yard with a bag of dog poop tied to it! I was makeing sure that Big checked with the "family" before doing something that can cause tension during what should be an enjoyable fall of hunting.
