I think if you go on someone's property trailing a deer without the owner's consent or knowledge and purposely violating a trespassing law, then you have NO respect for another person's rights.

If it were me, I'd first contact the owner. If he says "No", then I contact the warden.

If the warden can't help me by being there as an enforcer/middle man, then I'm SOL, but I tried.

A man still has his rights to his property he's paying taxes on and if he wants to be an ass about letting people on his property for this scenario, then he's the one with the problem and I'm not going to escalate a situation by violating a trespass law. I have at least that much respect for his ownership. However, back in the day, I did say f'it and looked for someone's deer for them. LOL! Times change, opinions change. This is so on-the-fence for me, my opinion may be different next year.

Trespass is the intrusion onto another's property withOUT the right.
