You shoot a buck at last light and it breaks him down but the deer stumbles out of your sight . You can hear the deer russeling in the leaves and then quitens down so you give him the customary time limit and go to the deer .


ok,..as I sometimes do(conicly OCD) I read the point of the original thread again....I guess first of all....what is the customary time? ...

second of all...If a deer is broke down...its down,....why wait at all... .....

Technically option #1 is illegal as well since a knife is not a legal weapon. ;\) \:D

If I remember correctly, The game laws state that if you wound an animal and find it still alive your are to immediately dispatch the animal. I don't remember anything about time limits at all. the quicker the kill the more humane is the way to go.

I would pick up the phone, call my local WO and let him know the situation, and dispatch the deer.

Shoot him immediately. Legal or not, it is ethical, humane and the right thing to do.


Well said
