I'm glad I have 110 acres of my own to hunt on.
I'm in a hunt club and I agree. Nothing pisses me off more that to find that someone has been hunting out of one of my stands. Last year, during rifle season, some jackass took a "guest" on a lease where my buddy has a couple bow stands and put said guest in my buddy's stand. Guy shot a basket rack buck 30 yds away under corn feeder. All captured on trailcam.
It's bad enough when people that want to benefit from other peoples hard work, not to mention bring someone out who isn't a paying member to do the same. Effin Classy. The only reason I stay in a club is so I can call coyotes in an area where I'm not trying to spook deer.
Looks like the OP need to buy half dozen cheap, large bottles of cologne and strategically place them around the lease as a thank you to his former friend.
You can lease grazing rights without the hunting rights.
All Indian trust land is leased that way. A farming lease on Indian land doesn't come with hunting rights.
I have some great family land to hunt on. My mother has gave various people permission without telling me and I would some times go out and have some one in the spot I was going to. My brother that doesn't hunt has wanted to lease it out.
We have had lots of problems with people that have permission bringing friends. I had to tell one guy that I really like that I was telling friends of mine that I have known for years NO, and he w s bringing to many people that I have never met with him. I know that it is better to have some one with you when you hunt. It helps when you drag a deer and if you were to have an accident it would be great to have a buddy. He has kept it to one person lately.
My Dad hated to tell anyone no. You can't let everyone that asks hunt. It would become dangerous and drive the game out too.
Times have changed.

The last time a landowner leased the grass on one of my spots, the leasehold locked the gates on me and ripped off my feeder.
Bummer. I once took down a deer stand that didn't belong to any one with permission. Yeh, I kept it.
I was hoping some one would ask about it.
Yeah, I decided not to hunt my own land to secure his leasing money lol. Still left in that I/he can shoot down there though while the cattle are in the other sections.
well if anyone has some land they want to lease, Id be more than happy to pay. don't have a lot of money but I can do manual labor around the land to cover some of it. Love to hunt and fish and just be outdoors. Especially if you have a coyote problem.
