Wounded with a Bow
So heres the deal. There is a guy I hunt with on my land and because of work he gets to hunt more than me. He sits in the best spot usually but it gets worse. He has wounded Three Deer!! Two bucks and one doe. Any thoughts??

RE: Wounded with a Bow
I can feel the flames a comin'...
Personally, I would tell this guy that until he is truly serious about improving his hunting accuracy and/or tracking skills that he needs to hunt elsewhere.
You don't give details, but I assume these bad hits are due to poor shot selection or poor accuracy and not purely bad luck. If so he needs to stop wasting the natural resourses on your land. He might as well be crapping in your living room and wiping with the drapes.
By all means help him to improve and to become a better hunter if it is possible. Every hunter will make a bad shot sometimes but if it becomes a pattern then something needs to change. Good luck and good hunting.

Your land your rules. If it were me I wouldn't hesitate to tell him that he is no longer welcome there.
