Landowner is a jackass. They could have at least split the meat and let the kid have the head for a possible mount.

I totally agree but we are talking about an 11 year old kid. I would have given it up in a second.
Especially such a small buck - not like there aren't a ton more deer around that the landowner could shoot.
I thought for sure this was going to be over a bigger deer.

im assuming this is why the boys father was ok with the decision made by coin toss

Put in the situation and assuming the landowner has probably killed a few deer in his time I'd give the deer to the boy and perhaps ask for a backstrap.
Mental note, I should open an ammo shop in Oneida, WI as those Cheeseheads apparently need 3 shots for every deer.

My initial thoughts:
1. You got to give that kid that deer or at least split the meat.
2. However, when I hear stories like this I now assume there is more to the story. I wonder if the landowner hadn't had problems with this happening with the kid's dad or other people hunting the neighboring property. That being said, kudos to the kid and his dad for not crossing the fence to go after the deer, but I do wonder if the kid and the landowner were hunting within sight of each other. That's kind of scary.
My older cousins tell a story about a hunt where my grandfather with his kids on one side (so my dad and uncles) and my grandfather's in-laws (so my great grandfather and his sons) stood over a deer shot arguing over which side got a deer that had been hit a couple of times when they were running dogs. Evidently it got really heated among a bunch of rednecks with loaded guns.
But that was before my family got a little less trashy and stopped running dogs.

I had the same thing happen to me last year. I heard a shot right on the property line 10 min later I can hear something crashing though the woods. A young 8 point bleeding from his shoulder comes stumbling in the field. I immediatley finish the deer off. Not five min later a kid maybe 16 comes walking into my food plot without wearing any orange on the same trail the deer used and the same direction I had just shot. I was PISSED first it was a deer we wouldnt shoot and bc this kid came crashing through our property and the food plot. I told him to get the eff off my property and to meet me at my camp after dark to get the deer. I gave the deer to the kid and explained to him and his dad that under no circumstances were they to ever step foot on our property again. I gave him nd his dad my number and told them to call if it ever happens again and we would get the deer for them.
One, your neighbors can shoot whatever they want. Sometimes it sucks, but it's their property.
Also, I may be mistaken but I believe you're allowed to cross property lines to retrieve game you shot on your property/property you have permission to hunt. At least I have always been taught this.
You're a dick.

If it was his first rack or biggest rack, absolutely.

For teaching a kid rules of the outdoors and keeping him from getting shot.... Which is what his dad should have done in the first place?

What a dick. Unbelievable that a grown man wouldn't want the kid to have that deer, regardless of who fired the fatal shot.

I think you can.
I'd leave my gun on my own property though.

This is what I was always taught to do. Leave gun, go retrieve, come back. Obviously not diddling around on someone else's property.

I'm sure the laws vary slightly by state, but most states don't allow going onto private property without permission from the landowner.

I don't know about tracking wounded game, but I know for a fact that you can go on another's property in search of a lost dog as long as you are unarmed, or your weapon is unloaded.

The timber dude was bitching about the AG guys shooting all HIS deer. The AG says, they may very well be YOUR deer but I have been feeding the hell out of them and plan to kill everyone of them I see...
your neighbors can shoot whatever they want.
