Shed Hunting Question
 
Yesterday I was out shed hunting and came to the fence line where the property that i hunt ends and i dont have permission to hunt the other side of the fence. Well just on the other side of the fence there was a huge 6pt. antler. I left the antler (witch was very hard to do). But i dont think anyone will find this antler because no one hunts this land. What should i do? Leave it there of go back and hop the fence and pick it up. Im not sure. I cant get a hold of the land owner to ask him if i can go over the fence to get the shed, he is never home and lives like 25 miles from me. What would some of you shed hunters do?

Don't hop the fence. Use a stick and pick it up. LOL

that is funny because i actually thought about that today. with there being snow on the ground they would tell if they went in there. Im going to go back tonight at dark and get it with a stick. If it is still there and i get it i will put a picture of it on here.

Trespassing is just that. If you can't reach it with a stick and you feel that you have to have it go ask the land owner and if he says no than leave it there. Maybe by showing the owner that you have respect for him you may get the permission to hunt it.

I have to agree with gutshot....If we as hunters continue to disrespect landowners, no matter how simple to us it may seem, we will continue to run into "fences" as we hunt.If we would grow some ceuth and respect landowners for they are the key to our hunting success whether we like it or not unless you were born rich and can buy your own land. I have a great respect for all of you who can actually suck up your wants and ask a landowner for any sort of permission. You never know maybe one day they will start saying, " You know I have this one guy that hunts on my land that actually asks me if he can hop a fence to get a pair of sheds." Instead of. " Can you belive this ahole just jumped my fence and did whatever he wanted to on my land?" You never know.Plus I believe in living guilt free.

Back home... fencelines were the two landowners property. Jump the fence and get the shed! Fence lines are in play. This rule came about to benefit us while turkey hunting. If the bird came to the edge of the fenceline "dead bird." Neighbors can do the same to us. It's only fair.
