hunting high pressure areas

[Chief RID]

I understand your concern but it is part of the game. Most folks abide by the rule of first lethal hit, especially archers, so more folks than you know may be fair. Most folks would even take a shot at stopping your deer if they felt it was going to be a slow death when it came by them. If you did run into someone that wanted the deer bad enough you would have to decide who wanted it most. You could look at it as your hunt can continue but his hunt is over. You still have your tag. He does not.
