See how stupid this could get with somone like this land owner?
I'm not sure who the offended person is when I drive 40 in a 35. Haven't figured that one out. The state? OK
As long as you who say you would trespass will admit that the DEER is worth you breaking the law for.....I have no issues with it. But we can leave the landowner out of it. By denying you entry.....he's doing nothing illegal. You would be.
The rights of the landowner is something our country's foundation is built on. I just don't like to see them taken so trivially.
Especially over a DEER.............[&:]

James you see my previous post, wardens dont have authority to persue trespassers. Only go after the deer if taken illegally.

Call the game warden. The property owner may own the land, but he does not own the game on it. The state does. Have a good relationship with your wardens and this will never be a problem for you.

Aren't you breaking the law simply by driving or walking up the driveway?

Sorry BB, but the answer is no, unless he had it posted.
So how do you ask for permission to retreive a deerif the property where the land owner livesis posted?
Say he lives on 500 postedacres that borders your hunting property and the deer ran onto that posted 500 acres. If you walk onto his property to ask for permissionyou are trespassing.... if you go get the deer you are trespassing.
What do you do?

Should be a part of our prep - every bit as important as sighting your bow, etc.

I finally saw the episode last night and I don't know. First off, that was just a bad shot. No two ways about it. They should have never even started tracking that buck (see Rob's post) until the next day.
It just seemed all too staged for me and maybe that was the point of the show to talk about landownder/neighboring property relations and raise a valid discussion which I think it did/has.

You work this all out PRIOR to the start of season.

It's still tresspassing when you walk over there before the season starts.
So what do you do? Is there anything you can do other than trespass?
