scenario one: you both buy tags, you both shoot a deer, you both take a deer home

scenario two: you both buy tags, you shoot two deer, you both take a deer home

in both cases two tags are paid for, two deer are harvested, and two families have meat in the freezer. whats the difference? who pulled the trigger.

People say that it isnt worth the risk, while that is true, that isnt the question posed here. The question is whether it is ethical. we know it isnt legal, but is it really unethical? Is it unfair to the deer who pulls the trigger? no. is it unfair to the guys kids who get to eat next week? no. is it unfair to you who is willing to do it to help a friend? no.

i am talking about this scenario, or the one that was put up in the original post. Yes there is a defference ebtween this and buying your wife and mother a tag so you can kill more deer.

So i think it is ethical, it isnt neccessarily "the right thing" to do, and there are better alternatives.

i know in NY you can transfer doe tags, but not buck tags. if thats the case then it is ethical. so where is the difference? the only difference is that one is legal and the other isnt.
