I'm at the base of my tree , Sitting.. I hear a shot.. Shortly after, a DEER comes running By. I shoot it. It drops 20 yards away. When I roll it over, I discover that it has been dealt a fatal wound on the opposite side. The other hunter Claims it as his. I claim it as mine. Bear in mind. The Deer would have dropped had I not Shot. Whose is it. ?  |

I have been in on that deal once before. The person who shot the deer last and it fell close by him/her has rightful claim. You or whom ever didn't know the deer was shot prior to u shooting it. A nice person would share the meat with the other hunter.

Here in Tennessee, I have read that the first person to shoot it, fatally or not, is the rightful owner. Its only right for the first person to shoot it, to claim it.

The sportsman thing to do would be to help get the deer out of the woods together and split the deer up. If it was a buck, shooter one gets the rack or head if he wanted. |

I always give it to the first shooter. Just the way I was taught.
