Default RE: who gets the deer in this situation?

I must not have replied to that thread because I believe in first blood if it's a fatal shot, it's that shooters deer regardless of gut shot etc...if it's only a flesh wound first, the killing shot gets the deer. Why is the lung shooter entitled to a deer if a gut shot deer runs his way and the shooter follow up's on his lethal shot. As far as I'm concerned, the second shooter is not entitled to the deer.

What if a guy heart shoots one, it runs a 100 yards and right before it falls over another guy lung shoots it, same scenerio, both lethal as well as gut shot, lethal, why is the second shooter entitled to a dead deer walking?
