      The only thing the commies in Cali got right was game retrieval. Took my Hunters Safety course out there with a retired GW and the current GW at the time, and if you shot a deer, on property you had permission to hunt on and it crossed lines. If you left your weapon on your property (after all means of contact were exhausted, preferably after a call to the GW) then you could then enter the other property to retrieve the deer.

      I wish more states would adopt that policy, granted there had to be definitive proof you had shot it on your property and it crossed the line after the shot.

        We are too big of a "landowner rights" state for that to ever happen. Do you really want the government to start making rules that allow other people to come on your land without your permission? We don't want to go there.

        Get to know your neighbors. If they are hostile towards hunters.....hunt farther from the property line or shoot better.

            To retrieve game, yes I'd much rather someone come on my property than let it rot. There are still very clear dos and donts with that permission they have.

            They can tell you no, and if the game warden or SO doesn't come to escort you, you'd get rolled up for trespassing.

              What if you can’t get a hold of landowner?
              What if you could stand at fence and see your deer?

              Just curious.

                  Always ask the neighbor for permission, never carry a gun on the neighbors property without permission and don't assume the game wardens will help you...the wardens in Williamson county will not assist you in finding a deer that crossed a fence line.

I was new to the lease and assumed everyone knew what they were talking about. One evening I had one run on to that neighbors property. Bottom line is I did what was right and drove up to the guys house and politely told him what had happened. He was a heck of a nice guy. He gave me permission to get the deer and thanked me for asking for permission to enter his property.

                    You go get your deer.

                      This ^

                      Be polite and courteous it goes a long way. And remember you are not the one paying the mortgage, taxes and insurance on their place. I have to carry liability insurance on my property just incase someone gets hurt regardless if they have permission or not.

                        And possibly a trespassing charge. You don't just cross the property line. Getting permission ahead of time would really help

                            Had a grouchy neighbor south of Sheridan, TX. Dad and family leased 1800 acres there for 30 years. We had to go through his place to get to ours and he didn't like it but the ROW was deeded so there was nothing he could do.

                            I was probably 11 or so when my Grandfather approached the man and asked him and his wife to come over for the opening weekend BBQ and they did.

                            Lifelong friends after that.

                            Not saying that would work every time but getting to know your neighbors, making friends with them goes a long way towards helping you to enjoy your time on the property.

                              Happend to me once.
                              Drove to guys house, that I did not previously know, and asked permission.
                              He not only gave his blessing, but helped me find deer and then even helped me field dress it. Said he was proud I didnt just jump fence.
                              Go the rt and legal way and most likely itll work out.
                              If not then its just a loss. Not worth legal problems.

Provided you shot the animal on your land they can not deny you the access to recover it. But you can't just hop the fence without informing them, or you are trespassing.
                                I see trouble and financial loss in your future

                                I would let anyone come retrieve an animal they had shot on their side and it crossed to mine

                                I would also press charges on anyone I just happened to catch that claimed to be retrieving something that was shot on another property

                                Neighboring land owners (at least my current ones) are always welcome to cross the fence when they need to
