well i had some land in ky a small tract. It had be let go for years. so i was working on making it a little piece of deer heaven.
On one day i caught two guys tresspassing who had rifles no orange vest. And it was not gun season.
I told them to leave and not come back. I also informed them i atleast three or four times a week would target shoot my ar15 that shoot 700 rounds a minute and the land was small and i would hate to shoot one of them not knowing they were on the property.
I then caught another guy whos said he was scouting for deer. i told him it was private land.
If someone knocked on my door and said i shot a deer can i go get it. I would say yes and help them find it.
But if i was to find someone tresspassing saying i shot a deer and i am looking for it. i more then likly would tell them to leave.
That is not to say i would not go get my deer on another property.
But i would ask before i did.
thing down there. you do not tresspass without permisson if you do you might get shot.
also i knew everyone around me and would have had no proplem getting my deer

Not to beat a dead horse, but it always helps to work with adjacent landowners to work out some sort of mutual right to retrieve arrangement. Having said that, there can can be a very fine line between someone enforcing their property rights and being a first class penis, especially if they are a fellow hunter. The type of people that would say no under those circumstances are generally the same ones who would come on your land without permission in a heartbeat to retrive a deer if the tables were turned.
