Critter, I think you owe your friend an apology. He is letting you hunt and fish on his property and taking the liability chances and all he is asking you to do is lie low for awhile. He is not going to let the neighbor hunt or fish he just doesn't want to have to spend the $$$ to potentially defend himself with an attorney. The neighbor is a jerk and your friend seems very reasonable except he seems to have a volatile better half. Be his friend don't make the matter worse.
