Since I pretty much only hunt public land mine would also have to be other hunters. My favorite land usually gets quite a few hunters early in bow season but the closer that we get to gun season the less bow hunters that are out there. It gets hammered in gun season.

The problems that bother me the most...
1. People that build their new houses and think they own the area and show no respect for us hunters that have been hunting there for years. One guy moved in with his wife and kids and they ride the quads all over the place making a bunch of noise. Theyve screwed up my hunts several times.
2. Hunters that shoot anything they see. Its a rarity seeing something bigger than an 8pt around where i hunt.

Right now I would say the amount of standing corn. I think that may put a damper on a few of my stand locations for at least the early part of the season.
I don't have an issue with people coming in my woods as I do they drive down the dead end road my property is on to shine deer and run through the big mud holes at the end. They really have no reason to be on the road but not much I can do.
