RE: lost a deer this morning
I would go get it anyway and then I would call the guy and tell him what a low life scum sucking maggot that I think he is.

RE: lost a deer this morning
I echo Nick's comments. Is it possible for the landowner to see your flashlight at night? If not, I'd be ready to go in at dusk.
It almost seems, after rereading your post, that you have a visual on the buck laying dead on the other guy's property. Is this true? Shouldn't be too hard to get it out of there under the cover of darkness if this is the case. Hell, I'd drop a bunch of cow bones where the deer was and if he confronts you, tell him the coyotes must have ahd a good dinner.

RE: lost a deer this morning
That guys is a real idiot . I would probaly jsut go back at dark tongiht without a flashlight or nething if you know where the deer is down and jsut get it then. just be catious and really sneeky aobut it and then you will get your deer. It doesnt sound right but I would personally rather sneek on someones property for 15 minutes then kill a deer for no reason and just have it go to waste. So use your best judgement.

Scott, I agree with the others. You did the right thing for the landowner by asking permission. Now you need to do the right thing for the animal and go get him. You said you know where it is, so if you can wait until dark and go in with no light and get him.

RE: lost a deer this morning
well considering all the illegal tresspassers out there it makes me wonder! I would feel bad in this situation but there is other ways and hopefully if taken action upon IMMEDIATLY the situation can be remided both the animal goes bad! If not, 2 wrongs dont make a right and however bad we think it is to leave a deer, tresspassing is something I dont care to deal with, bars never did look good on me and I am sure that can be said for most of yaz!!!! Just something to think about.......

RE: lost a deer this morning
bull, I'd get the deer after dark, as the others suggested. By the time you follow through with "the right" way, the deer may well be bad.
