It's dang near impossible not to do something illegal without even knowing it. Once I shot at a doe I saw in rifle but missed her. Went to check for blood and here she had been licking a trophy rock by a treestand that also had a jug of some sort of bait. And that was on gamelands.
you put her on high alert rolling the window down?😝JK!
 
Well I’m sure the number of tags and opportunities (seasons and length) has made some more honest than they would be if was the way it was 20-40 plus years ago.
When it was one deer and done….you had a family of 5-7 to feed one deer didn’t last to long.
The community that I grew up in there were guys that provided deer meat for people.
I remember being at someone’s house as a kid and someone dropping a big tin can filled with deer meat off. I don’t know the particulars on if it was tagged or not or even remember if it was deer season. The family that received it was very happy about it.
