Typo has been corrected.

Yeah he must make custom Dillon Tower Box Blinds.

1000 acre land owner has tried to talk to him and he was an *******. So if you treat someone like a dick, be expected to be treated like one in return.

Is this located NW of Fredericksburg near a small town which shall not be named?

I grew up on 40 acres or so in the hill country in Comal county. We had the river on one side and three large ranches around us. My dad would not build blinds along our fence lines and he told me to not sit on the fence lines to hunt. Our neighbors did not build blinds along the fence nor did we ever see them hunting along the fences.
My dad's reason was proper neighbor property and hunting respect and etiquette. It was common in those days.
We were on a lease of 600 acres in Blanco county in the 80's and one of the guys on the lease shot a nice buck across the fence of a neighboring ranch. He got caught and almost cost all of us to get kicked off the lease.
He simply said temptation got the best of him.
Best not to hunt on fence lines and test temptation.
Because respect and hunting etiquette are no longer important to some folks.

When you lease your property out to people not vested in the property all kinds of craziness can happen. Or you neighbor leases theirs out.

Yep. That's why many landowners have quit leasing their land for hunting.

All 4 are tower box blinds. They hunt all 4 at the same time.

Not my property but would upset me if it was. I hunt down the road and am friends with the 1000 acre land owner.

Just about every one of our blinds are on the fenceline - facing into our property.

I'd rather blinds be on the perimeter facing in so when I am shooting, I am shooting into my property and not from the inside out towards other's property. There is no reason I should sacrifice the use of their land simply because somebody on the other side of the fence doesn't like it. I don't mess with the land on the other side of the fence, as far as I know they don't mess with ours either. Deer jump the fence all of the time, I work to make it more attractive for them to be on my side

Don't understand your sentence of "sacrificing use of their land". We set up our stands and blinds interior of the property to insure no bullets are going into our neighbors land without putting any of them on fence lines. Our neighbor's (except the kid I'm dealing with now) have, for years all done the same and we have no issues like what's being discussed.
It's really all about the ethics of the hunter that's in that fence line stand as to whether things can go bad or not and nothing else.
Us and our neighbors have always been agreed to not do it…. that way it eliminates any chances of conflict.
It has worked well for all of us so far.
To each his own.

Would put cams there and a no trespassing sign. A very clear sign you know and are watching. Give them the chance to hunt their property legally and safely, but any shenanigans happen and the game warden is getting a call.

As always I enjoy and respect your opinion. I was brought up being taught that it was unethical and disrespectful to put blinds or hunt on our neighbors fences…. and all I had to hunt on was about 40 acres…. but it's what my family taught me and when we got the ranch in the hill country all the old time landowners lived by that rule as well…. and did not mince words making you aware of it.
We were blessed with a pretty good size hunk of ground so we never felt having blinds well off fence lines hurt our hunting success.
In fact it helped us as our deer were not spooked by activity on our neighbors places with shots, ATV noise, voices etc…which would have been the case if our blinds had been on our fence lines.
80% of our blinds were tower blinds and therefore always shooting into the ground. Our ground blinds were always situated shooting down into canyons or into hill sides … totally eliminating any chance bullets would cross any fences. We basically had no shooting directions going toward fence lines.

You and I were raised the same. I guess not everyone shares the same thoughts on what is proper etiquette.

I still can't comprehend four blinds on 10 acres. Unless you're a stick and string hunter, I don't see how this is plausible.

1.) shoot hog
2.) place hog in offending blind at end of hunting season
3.) slit hog open
4.)?????
5.) blind gets moved/trashed

Gross. I can actually smell this post

On our lease, most of our stands are on the perimeter shooting in. Most are off the fence line, but to say they are all in the middle of the land is not a true statement. They are ground blinds and you really can't see the other persons property, but they are just a long stones throw away from the fence.

I assume most hunting is like this. Lease roads are on the perimeter, take a left or right and go off the road a little ways and hunt. I think this is fine.

What we have here is tower blinds that can see and shoot easily well into the neighbor's land if they wanted. I think this is optics that people complain about the most. Where it looks like a set of East German guard towers watching the Berlin wall.

I wouldn't care about a ground blind on the fence line that has brush behind it or no back windows, where it looks like they can't shoot your way.

It seems some people don't have an issue with the neighbor blatantly hunting across the fence, and think it's ok to have a fence line blind...

So on your side of the fence, build a high plywood wall along your fence line, between his stand and your food plot. Sixteen ft 4x4's, 1/4" plywood, sack crete.

You're making sht up. Who on this thread has said that?
