Now this is purely a hypothetical question which a few friends and I were discussing about running deer after being shot.
The land we have is surrounded on 3 sides by forestry commission and quite a few of the main shooting areas are within 100 yards of these points. Now as yet we have had no runners but Vehicle access at present is restricted to a mile or so away from the main seats due to impassability with water logged fields and slopes.
Now the question is what would you do if you were on your own and one jumped borders?
We are not asking whether you would wonder in rifle over your back as that is obvious but the legality of retrieving the deer, would you need to inform anyone?
