I think our imaginary internet tough-guy exchange has gone far enough. It’s not advancing the conversation. We’re not going to agree, and it’s a moot point, because the original poster already said he felt comfortable discussing the issue with the landowner, which I think is the respectful thing for a man in that position to do.

Just to clear all this up because it seems like there are a lot of mixed opinions: first off I wouldn't bring it up if I didn't have a better relationship with the farmer. We talk outside of season a fair amount and I've hunted this property for 15 years. Second, I approached the subject and led the conversation with something to the effect of "Farmer, I wanted to talk to you about the land this year. There are a couple of things I wanted to talk about, that for me, are difficult to bring up because of my respect for you and all that you've done for me over the years. I understand that your priority is providing for your family and I respect that. I know that is priority #1 and I totally get it. Please understand my concerns are not meant to offend, but I know you're not a hunter so I wanted to share some observations. Then I went on to talk about the cows and land/etc. Was well received and he wasn't pissed at all. He appreciated me telling him. He's not a hunter so he just doesn't know. We will see what happens but as of now he's open minded.
