re: Recovering Deer on another Property

Few things we need to make clear here.

#1 Lease President and Lease members are not the landowner in this situation and have zero authority on granting or denying you access and can be contested. (Lease presidents and members power trip over this to no end)

#2 Only the landowner or land management company (Hancock, Rayonier, Molpus, etc.) can give or deny you this access. (keep these numbers in your phone for land that borders you)

#3 If landowner denies you access in Louisiana a game warden can then be called and escort you to your animal on another property to prevent wanton waste issue.

Yes, it is a nice gesture and the proper moral and ethical thing to do from a safety standpoint to let a lease president and or its members know what's happening, but they hold absolutely ZERO authority in the action of you retrieving your animal, and sometimes it's hard for them to swallow. We don't have the best sportsmen out there today.
