ethics...its what you do when noone is around or looking.

i personally couldnt do it. mainly because if you set yourself up to be that close the the property line your already considering shooting through it. i couldnt look at the buck on the wall knowing i POACHED HIM. you guys need to let it go.

What would you do? That's the question.

RE: WHAT WOULD YOU DO...HONESTLY...
 

Sounds like somebody has a guilty conscience! jk. It'd be hard to let it go, but you should. Besides, if you shot it on the wrong side of that fence, you'd never feel quite right about it.

Well where I hunt my grandfathers land has had the same neighbors for 100 years. They haven't officially said hey hunt here but they know us and could care less. I personally would shoot in that situation. Now if your neighbors are real fickle about their land then no I wouldn't do it.

RE: WHAT WOULD YOU DO...HONESTLY...
 

Honestly? Not shoot! Its still wrong even if no one else knows it but me.
It doesn`t change a thing [&:].

RE: WHAT WOULD YOU DO...HONESTLY...
 

I would thank God someone else didn't get him and start thinking about how I will hunt him next year.

RE: WHAT WOULD YOU DO...HONESTLY...
 

Thats just it, I would know.

If I'm here in NH (yeah right, there are no 180" deer here) I am putting one through his boiler room. If I was in a state where the law says its a no-no, I'm letting him walk. Don't break the law guys, it is a bad reflection on us as a whole.

RE: WHAT WOULD YOU DO...HONESTLY...
 

I'll answer your question with another question, Why put yourself in that situation?
