Well said Tall Tines.I bought my first farm in 2005 and was fortunate to buy the other 58 acres from the "neighbor" that caused me alot of misery and still has his moments. If I hadnt got it, I would be in trouble!!!!! My other neighbors are great but then again, how do you know a good guy won't sell to someone who isn't or lets someone hunt that isn't ethical. In saying that, find protection on as many sides as you can and look at the worst case scenario. You can't go wrong that way. How much are trying to buy?
