Default Would you reach accross the fence....?

With all the specifics and ethics involved with being a good hunter.... and how everything gets over analyzed(not saying its always a bad thing).... I have a simple yes or no question, that i would love a truly honest answer from you guys. Im just curious....

Your out looking for sheds for the umpteenth time and have nothing to show for it... your checking a fence line as you know this would have a higher probability of finding a shed than in an open field... You have permission to hunt on the land your searching... you technically do not on the other side of the fence...(now you know what I'm getting at), Youve never even seen the owner, your way back in the woods, and their lies the biggest, unchewed, perfect, shed antler you ever seen, lying perfectly just on the other sid of the fence.

Well??

Without question! Those other people who own the other property don't own the deer on said property, or the antlersfrom the deer (at least in Pa). If you're not stepping foot on that land, why not?

I would take the shed.

I would also retrieve a downed deer in the above situation.

Lastly, I am sure the ethics police will arrive here shortly to straighten this all out.

Yep. I'd even cross a fence like that for a morel.

We're talking about shed antlers here, not stealing cars. There is a difference.

No, I wouldnt. Id get permission first. Thats stealing as far as I concerned. No different than taking fruit or veggies from across the fence.

No, it's quite different!The veggies and fruit were planted by them on their land. Antlers from a deer they don't ownis an entirely different story. Sorry.
