Oh wow!

I see that I'm also in the minority with only 7%............[]

I think some of you guys take this (hunting)a little too seriously.
[:'(]

Nope, some of us RESPECT that animal enough to risk dealing with some ignorant anti-hunter type to follow up on what we started. I've never hunted in a situation where Scenario #2 would be an issue, however, I've put the shot over the fence, on a few occasions while hunting borders of land I was allowed to retrieve deer from, but not allowed to place a stand on. With archery equipment, MOST of the time, YOU are the only one who knows that shot was ever taken. Not saying I advocate tresspassing, but when there are pieces of land that are literally never seen by the owners for sometimes a period of 2-3 yrs, I suppose, I don't consider it trespassing as much as using the land GOD gave us. I do regularly hunt one such piece of land that the owners are some out of touch GREEN-PEACE fanatics that have not been to that property in at least 2 yrs as they live over 1,000 miles away and are the owners as a result of a "confused" willing. Call me WRONG or whatever, but I've never left the place any worse than it was when I happened upon it, and I've several times cleared the oil well path of debris when accessing it (on foot).
