Buddy of mine shot a deer to day and it ran a cross property line went to the land owner and ask for permission to go look for it and the land owner told him no he could not go look for it has this ever what happen to any of you and if so how did you handle it

Should have called game warden. , warden would have escorted him to retrieve deer .

When I shoot one I hope it runs toward the property line of the land I'm allowed to hunt

U still have to have permission from the land owner don't u

Game warden can go wherever he wants. .

Offer him a hind quarter.

I bought a bigger gun to try and decrease the chances of that happening. If you call the game warden he will escort you to retrieve it. I shot a deer on my old hunting lease that ran to Kistachi National Forrest. I was not about to get put in jail over that shit. I called the W&F and they sent a Warden over. He was a very nice fellow. He checked my identification and asked to see where I shot it. He saw the blood trail, we walked over and found it. He even helped me drag it out. It ended up only being a few yards into the area.

We hunt bow hunting only public land its surrounded by a private ranch they don't like us to much we could have jumped the fence and went looked for it but we did the right thing and ask for permission cuz aint know deer worth getting a trespassing ticket

First offense isn't bad

If he would have called a warden, I think he would have came right out. It happens to me all the time hunting geese in developments

I got a few buddies that wear those green jeans to work, anyways they will always come escort you to your deer, goose, duck, whatever it may be.

If land owner wanted to be dick when you doing right thing, tell him you calling the game warden bc u saw the land owner shoot deer and just leave it, wanton waste tickets aren't cheap

Yep and the neighbor tagged it.

Ducks and especially deer will make folks act ignorant. Had your buddy been a good neighbor? Still, No reason for the landowner to be a dick.

In Minnesota, you don't have to ask permission but you do have to leave if they tell you to (taken from the MN hunting regs):

"A person on foot may, without permission, enter land that is not posted to
retrieve a wounded animal that was lawfully shot, but may not remain on the
land after being told to leave.

A person on foot may, without permission, enter private land without a
firearm to retrieve a hunting dog. After retrieving the dog, the person must
immediately leave the premises. This exception does not authorize the taking
of the wild animal"



But I know you guys down south have some bizarre property laws (like being able to own water), which I always find as weird.
