I'm only 19 so take this for what you think its worth but..
IMO 100 acres isn't necessarily a big enough plot of land to sell weekend hunts or lease it. You could easily run into difficulties with people you lease it to, and with 100 acres problems could easily arise from hunters that could mess up a whole season (too much four wheeler riding, shootin up the land, etc). Maybe sell a hunt or two out of season for pigs ( and turkey too, if you have the population to support your own bird hunting and others).
As far as the friend goes, I think it would be a little out of the question to try and charge him. I think that doing work on the lease is a big help, and sometimes better than payment of cash. He is your friend, and I would want to see my good buddy take a deer on my place, especially if he put in some time out there to improve the place.
Also, you may not have wanted to "call him out" so to say, but putting a thread with his picture on a forum that he is a member of? Certainly you would have realized he would have seen this if he frequents the GS... Kind of a put down to him, calling him out in a way.
Just my $.02!
