I've been invited to gohunting for roe deernext wed with some male friends of mine. My boyfriend has been invited along also.
So far my friends have got about 7 deer altogether within 3 days of hunting. My friend has 200 acres and lives about 5 miles from me.

I was asked if i wanted to use my bow but its illegal here. My friend said that he wouldn't tell and that its his land. No one would say anything. Is this wise? I am tempted but I also don't want to end up in jail.

What should I do? [&:]

It's against the law! I hope that answers your question...

I think it's a matter of ethics, isn't it?

The temptation is there but my gut feeling is telling me no. I'm not one for breaking the law.

So that would be no.

But it shall be an interesting rifle hunt, my first deer too. I'll be nervous. Will get pictures!

Laws are there for a reason! Good luck with your hunt!

I'd be shocked if anyone here would tell you its ok to use your bow.

Laws are unfortunately not always reasonable. It does not always have to do with right and wrong or ethical or unethical. I am sure killing a deer over there is no more cruel or unethical than it is here in the States.

There are many Stupid Games laws on the books here from state to state as well.

All that said if it is against the law where you are then you should obey the law. Nothing is worth being arrested for and getting a record.

Do what's right. Abide by the law is what I'd suggest.
Good luck as well.
