I have access to about 70 acres to deer hunt. The land that it borders changed hands about two seasons ago. The new owners are opposed to hunting. The best area to hunt is a hardwoods flat bordering their land. They will not allow anyone to recover shot animals on their property. Negotiations are pointless, they would rather the carcass, "return to the earth", than fall into a hunters hand. I've checked with my local game warden and confirmed they are under no legal obligation to allow a deer to be recovered. These folks are ruining a great place. They blast the music and call in poaches nearly every time I'm there. Luckily, the Deputies stopped looking for me and just send a text if they have a question. Going elsewhere isn't an option, as this is the last place I have access.
Now to the point, what would be the best shot placement in my scenario? I hate to loose meat, but I'm thinking through both shoulders with something heavy. Thanks for any feedback.
