I have friends, I have hunting buddies, and I have friend's who I hunt with. Sounds like this cat needs to just be a friend.

Sit him down and tell him what he's doing.
I agree. I had a friend that did this. He was new to hunting and genuinely didn't know he was doing something wrong or pissing me off. He quit once we talked about it and went elsewhere when we weren't hunting together.

So I guess there is an unwritten rule that you don't go hunt an area that a friend took you to for a hunt. How much area does that cover? A mile? The drainage? The county?
What if it is a large area and there a 100 or so other guys who have the same secret spot?
I have had the same thing happen with fishing holes. It bugs me a little, but it is a free country and everyone wants wants to get the game or fish.
I did have some family members that didn't like me hunting a huge area that they introduced me to even though I was hunting archery and they hunt modern firearm. The area was kind of overrun by archery hunters too. Lots of other firearm hunters during their season too. It is a big state so I found and am finding other areas to hunt.

:dunno:I didn't take him, he literally tailed me to the spot. The spot is a road that u walk. By no means is it big. At most it can handle 3-4 hunters at a time. In all of my time hunting it I have only seen select few friends who give each other space while they hunt it. Only about 6 people really new about it. Now 10

that said kinda sucks to hear about things like this it sure contributes to people not wanting to help anyone who is new.

You go find your own spot and dont share with anyone :dunno: I tend to not hunt places someone else took me to without them or without a heads up to them and I dont take anyone else with me if I do... If it feels weird to me at all I will just find another spot its not that big a deal there are a whole lot of acres of land to hunt.
Totally agree. For me, doesn't matter State, Nat'l Forest... if someone introduced me to it, I won't go there unless they are with me. Now, if the conversation comes up, and I feel they genuinely don't have a problem with it, then I may go, but only after it's discussed prior to the trip. Then I'd go alone, wouldn't bring anyone. I like the idea of sitting them down, especially if they are a newbie and explain to them your concerns.
