Oh absolutely Tracy, I would have punched my tag immediately had I had a chance to access where I thought he was...I believe it's the right thing to do regardless of actuall recovery (if you can call this mess a recovery)

Landowner Permission Card (PDF 127.33 kB)
Written permission is required to enter land posted with hunting and/or trapping by “Written Permission Only" signs, or land having trees or fence posts painted purple. Landowner permission should be obtained before pursuing wounded game onto private property. If you cannot find the landowner or get permission, contact your local natural resource officer. (HERE)

It is both illegal and dangerous to mount blinds or treestands on power poles, whether they appear abandoned or not.

Never crossed my mind that Michael would have done nothing less. Was delayed in my response due to carefully rereading the thread to determine if I had possibly missed something before posting.

The deer we pursue command our greatest honor and respect as radiantly displayed by Michael's full display of intergity in his all out effort to recover the fallen animal.

Congrats!!!

Michael,

Congrats on an awesome deer! Could you tell anything about the arrow placement with what was left of him?

It is illegal to hunt, shoot, or trap on private land without the owner's permission. Hunting from public roads requires permission of the landowner adjacent to the side of the road being hunted. Railroad rights-of-way require permission from the railroad.

Recovery permission is someting that any hunter should determine BEFORE ever needing it. As essential a part of hunt preparation as scouting, being proficient with your bow, sharpening broadheads, etc. Especially when hunting a smaller property where there is a high probability of the deer leaving before dying. If you decide to drop the string knowing you may not be able to recover, be prepared to accept the decision.

Glad you found him.  Congrats.  Jeff

Yep, the thought never crossed my mind for some reason. I hope you can learn from my mistake.

Way to go Michael!      

[JohnV]

Tresspass/recovery laws vary quite a bit from state to state.  In some states, the landowner is required to post his property before trespass laws can be enforced.  Other states it is the responsibility of the hunter to know property lines.  Same applies to recovery.  Some states require permission while others say you have a right to recover.  Make sure you know the laws for where you are hunting.

Nice Buck Man, way to stick with it  

[buckeyebowhunter]

First let me congratulate Michael on recovering a fine buck. Many hunters would have given up searching after realizing the buck may have gone onto another property.

Now I would also like to say that from my understanding there are a few comments posted that are out of line in my opinion about Michael's situation. He did not shoot the deer knowing that it would run onto someone else's property. He handled the situation very well by asking the landowner for permission to recover his deer. Although it is a nice thought to have permission to enter every neighboring property before a season starts it is not always easily obtained or ever obtained for that matter. Losing a deer or any game animal is part of hunting whether we want to accept that or not; whether it be from loss of blood, poor shot placement, or permission to enter a property.

Congrats Michael I believe you handled it in a very ethical way and I am glad you were able to recover a fine buck.
