RE: I need consoling
What should be important here is that you will know what you are going to do next time. Have a plan for when it happens again. Maybe you should at least talk with your neighbors so you know where they stand. If you hunt that close to them the odds are in favor that you may have to deal with this situation again. If they tell you that there is no way you are coming on their land to get a deer you shot then you will at least know that you should head straight for the game wardens. It is a shame what happened. I am sure if give it to do over you would have done it differently.
