I like to see an “Official “ DRN statement on the use and guidelines.
What happens if the Deer isn’t dead?
And how low can the Drone be flown on property that you don’t have permission/access on?
What if you see live Deer …. How long time must you wait to hunt an area after Drone use? Never…. ?

Cost is stated on the website under the "get started" tab, $400.00 plus a per mile fuel charge if they have to drive over the allotted mileage.
They discuss the legal issues of finding a live deer under the "legal" tab, basically they give you coordinates of the deer and you have to wait 14 days before using the info to pursue the deer.
That is a long time to wait.

That’s no legal law …. That’s their interpretation of a conversation with someone IMO IF it’s a Actual law there will be a IC code to reference. A lot of questions need addressed IMO…. Now that someone has started a service I expect DNR will make official position.

If I thought the use of a drone would help find a dead/wounded deer, I'd likely be willing to bend the law as long as trespassing is not involved.

Of course it's not. IMO it's nothing more than an attempt to cover themselves from any legal liability. This company needs to take the time to consult with an attorney and (at the very least) reference legal code in the areas of the laws involved.

That is a long time to wait. So, basically pay them $400 plus fuel cost so they can point you to a coyote bait pile? No thanks. I'm not going lie, if they found my deer and it was still alive, I'm not waiting 14 days to go get him/her. Maybe a few more hours. I'm going to try and end the suffering and recover the meat immediately. No sense in wasting it. I think it'd be best for me to use a dog.

Morrison posted a comment in Ask a Conservation forum I seen that…. 14 days before and 14 days after season doesn’t state a waiting time when season is in. I still think a dog option is Best when using a good dog.

I am not paying someone 400 freaking dollars plus mileage to recover a deer and then if it is still alive cannot pursue it for 14 days. No thank you.

Now that someone has started a service I expect DNR will make official position. I asked the owner on FB - Question - Where did you get the “14 days “ from? I’ve never seen any time frame on “taking” after finding a wounded deer with a drone. No answer. IMO - Since they will be doing this statewide they need a signed directive on this subject from someone higher up on the DNR totem pole than their local COs. Different county COs might see things a little differently than the COs they contacted.

Is it really that difficult to just use a weapon you are competent with, at a distance consistent with your skill? You know, "Hunt'n stuff".

Things happen sometimes, but I get your point and understand where you are coming from. It seems that many hunters today run cameras that call your phone instead of actually scouting and now it appears that they want flying cameras to find the deer they made a lousy shot on too.

Everyone misses or makes a bad shot if they hunt long enough!
Hard to find the “Perfect Hunter”….
