A question about finishing a deer after dark!!

[tradtiger]

Valid question. Hunter would seem to be protected in dispatching wounded animal as part of continuous pursuit -- just can't hunt it for a couple of days.

JMO, I'll do the right thing and sleep well, may not be legal in the eyes of the law, but I will be ethical.

This right here 100%

shoot suppressed and you don't have to worry about any of this

Shoot bow only and you sure don't need to worry.

Nice response interaction as well, good to see other opinions without dragging a guy by the short hairs.

Well now that you mentioned it Crossbows really ain't bows! Put them in the general season!

You're hunting the wrong counties.

Arent there some very specific regulations to the lawful dispatch of a wounded deer? Seems Sika has posted about that in the past.

Remember this because you will, God willing, be an old dude some day.

I'm almost there. Just stirring the pot

I did use a crossbow one season, and I was glad to have that option. I had elbow and shoulder surgery, and couldn't draw back a bow.
