The way I see is it he has already asked for your help as he has an issue that he doesn’t think he can take care of. I would do as mentioned and take him up on the offer and try to get to know the fellow and that would give you more insight. It may be that you are really helping him out more than you know as he may really be pressed for reducing the doe numbers to comply with MLD (just guessing).

Foods always a good option. I had a similar situation with an older gentleman one time. I just gave him a handshake and a sincere thank you. It was obvious he didn't want anything from me, but the next week I sent him a nice package from Omaha steaks. He definitely appreciated it based on the nice phone call I got.

If you can bbq, bring a mess of ribs and a brisket with you. Doesn't cost you too much money but it does show that you put in the time to make something you both can enjoy. At his age, he's likely over the material items in his life.
Or you can send him a few links of sausage from the does you kill after the hunt.

What would you expect if you were in his shoes?
It's a doe hunt and you are doing him a huge favor. Besides, he already owns a freakin' ranch and I'm quite sure already has a ton of knives to boot. lol. If anything, offer to help him with a ranch chore during the mid-afternoon down time (unless you are hunting all day). If you are staying the night, then whip up a hearty dinner. Nothing better than a thick ribeye and loaded potato.
Give the guy an expensive ranch sign?? Nice gesture, especially for just a doe hunt. But, unless you know EXACTLY what he would want- be prepared for an awkward meeting the next time when you realize he never put your sign up.Last edited by Roy; 10-30-2019, 07:39 AM.
