Re: Same Deer, two shooters.
I say you did fine. It was an amicable resolution. If you only have one tag, he is done and you get to spend more time in the woods, and he does not. Now if it was a trophy buck, I might have thought about it, but you can say closest shot won.
Re: Same Deer, two shooters.
The rule I always heard it is the person who shot it last. You will never know if you would have found the deer if he didn't finish it.
But there are asshats that will shoot it on the ground and say its theirs. Thats when the arguments begin.

Hunter that puts it down gets the deer. That’s how I see it.

LOL! First thing I thought of was "King Solomon", but didn't think anyone would understand the biblical reference - so I went with visual humor.

Our camp always use the first blood rule but as long as both sides are happy who cares.

Ground rules should have been established upon first meeting.

That’s always been the rule we abide by.
