I approached an elderly private land owner and he told me that he doesn’t allow anyone to hunt his property. He hunts but only during rifle on the property. He told me that I could hunt these last couple weeks of archery. I only have an extra cow tag to fill but that didn’t come up- he was telling me about a couple bulls locations. I told him that I would be more than happy to fix fences this spring and if he shot an elk during rifle, to pack it out for him since he isn’t physically capable of doing it. I can glass his property from the road, so if I see elk during rifle- I will drive up and offer to walk with him up the hill to go shoot one. He is an old rancher type and will probably not want me to fix his fences, pack an elk out, or direct him to an elk on his property as he is probably too proud- and rightfully so, it isn’t an accident to own such a beautiful parcel.
Here’s my question... what kind of gift should I give him once these couple weeks of archery is over to show my appreciation? I would like love to show him what it means to me and impress him, with hopes of gaining archery access for next year and years to come... I’m all ears!
