Yeah, this shouldn't need a lot of discussion or legislation. As long as they have permission to me there; they should be GTG.
Its already illegal to kill deer in the dark, whether they are injured or not.I know there are folks offering this as a service now, and drones are illegal to use in attempting to kill a deer. If I understand it right, if the drone finds the deer and it is not dead, the hunter cannot then slip in and finish the deer off during the over night period, but can recover a deer found deceased this way. I think they have to leave it alone if it is decided to not be a fatal injury, and there may be a chance the next day to slip into the area the deer was marked to verify and or recover the next day. Not certain on what the ethics of the later are, but recovering one that is dead already I think is a good thing.
When you are doing surveys or doing recoveries how do you handle property lines? Or do you just fly and investigate anyone's property you are led to? I would be very upset if my neighbors were flying a low level camera over my property.![]()

Been doin it for years. The perception of how it works is widely misunderstood guys
Maybe drones are like dogs, they can't read no trespassing signs from the air.When you are doing surveys or doing recoveries how do you handle property lines? Or do you just fly and investigate anyone's property you are led to? I would be very upset if my neighbors were flying a low level camera over my property.
I am not in favor of the use of drones on property that is not owed by the drone user or the drone user has permission to hunt own.![]()
