The only problem with that would be if the deer runs through some yards with the string attached and tangled all through the yards and with my luck all the yards it would run through would be anti-hunters yards with picket signs andd all!!!! Just my luck LOL!!! But for normal people probably wouldn't be a bad idea!Mine also consider using a string tracker to know exactly where the recovery needs to be made from. Everyone hates to recover or rather not recover a deer. But it would be really bad to not recover one in an urban environment based on potential antihunting sentiment.
how does that work? Do you think that the person denying permission wants the deer for themselves? Or hates hunting? I would not want a rotting deer on my property and if someone asked to get a shot deer off mine I would be inclined to say "yes".Only if i FIRST secured permission from my neighbors to track wounded deer onto their property. The odds of them dying on your two acres are extremely low as you well know so i think it’s fair to assume the majority of deer will die on your neighbors property.
In WI anyways, it’s illegal to track wounded deer onto private property without permission even if they were shot legally. I’ve been denied access half a dozen times and lost nice deer as a result in similar circumstances as yours, NEVER AGAIN!
So unless you know you’re covered first for retrieval it’s irresponsible to hunt two acres imo as ive learned the hard way.
If you get permission from everyone then id 100% hunt 2 acres.

Just curious -- thx!
When I've been in that situation, even after I'd asked permission ahead of time, I STILL called the landowner and asked if it was ok. Reason being, maybe the wife said it was OK but never mentioned it to her husband, or vice versa. So you're just in the middle of a domestic squabble. And I also confirm every year if it's OK, even if nothing has changed.No idea.
Non Hunters would be my assumption who have no idea about honoring the animals we hunt. So they would rather let an animal go to waste than allow an evil hunter to put the animal to good use.
I don’t think many actual hunters would deny access. I know i wouldn’t i’d help a guy go find it actually.
