Dave: a few thoughts based on experiences on both sides of this--as mentioned, check on your liability, and, at a minimum, include a waiver of liability in your requirements signed by every hunter before they're allowed to hunt there--it's at least a first step in protecting yourself. Make sure boundaries are clearly spelled out, marked, and understood. Have a system in place for wounded deer retrieval if they go off your land, preferably reciprocal with the surrounding owners. Make sure the guest policies are clear and in writing--it's one thing for them to bring a friend, it's quite another to bring a gang of dozen "guests" onto your property. Make sure there's an understanding, preferably in writing, about permanent stands--again, having seen both sides, it's best to make sure everyone knows what is acceptable--I've seen permanent stands erected by lessees that would make a decent house, and the time, cost and effort going into something like that means it's not something to be undertaken lightly, nor can it be easily removed. Fine if this is a long-term agreement, but if not, it represents considerable expense to both build and remove, and it's best if everyone knows what is and isn't acceptable going in. Make sure if you want to hunt the property yourself that you've spelled that out--again, from both sides, it's one thing for the landowner to take a deer off his own land, it's quite another for him to shoot the same trophies his lessees are paying good money to hunt or to invite every friend, neighbor, and relative he knows to hunt the land that's being leased. Make sure your lessees are aware of what they can and can't do to remove trespassers--do they call you, do they call the wardens, do they tell them to leave, etc. etc. Having all of this spelled out ahead of time in writing can save many headaches later on.

Today's Featured Article - Usin Your Implements: Bucket Loader - by Curtis Von Fange. Introduction: Dad was raised during the depression years of the thirties. As a kid he worked part time on a farm in Kansas doing many of the manual chores. Some of the more successful farmers of that day had a new time saving device called a tractor. It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'. My dad dreamed that some day he would have his own tractor with every implement he could get. When he rea
