RE: bending or breaking the law
well there is no real bending the law...the laws are pretty clear cut. so since he be in the stand and if he already filled his tag and is in the stand with only his dads tag and a game warden where to see him and check him...he would be going to jail and loose hunting privliges for a while! simply because if he has no tags in his name OR is carrying another persons tag without them having a gun and in the same stand is illegal. so to answer your question its very illegal. tho IF someone is going to do something like that at least they went thru the proper channels to get a deer tag...so at least he gave the money to the DNR for taking the deer and not just going and shooting another buck without any tags...
