They came together over the body of the deer and came to a decision as to whose deer it should be and that person tagged the deer making it legally his. It is that simple, don't over analyze a simple situation.
defend it all you like, I am NOT arguing just stating a fact
last person that shoots and KILLS it, is the person that KILLED it
if they decide to NOT tag it and let the other person tag it, that there call not the law's side of things
if these were two strangers and FIGHTING over a BIG buck , the law would come down to LAST person that shot and KILLED it.
IF I shoot a person and there STILL alive, and someone else shoots them and KILLS them(extreme example here)
one if guilty of shooting person one is guilty of murdering them!
you call it as you like
but just cause you let it go, doesn't again MEAN it was legally 100% here!
your human as are rest of us, we something do whats right and again NOT legal!
this is a super trivial deal IMO, but doesn't change FACTS or laws!
