hunting high pressure areas

[BriBri]

I haven't been able to locate any info regarding high pressure areas on this site via the Search function, so I'll post my question in this (Almost Anything Goes) room.

I am thinking about foregoing a guided hunting trip this fall up in Maine and trying my luck in a more local area near where I live. I accept the fact that as this location is only about 3K acres, I will have to contend with a little bit of hunting pressure, which I suppose I could live with. My real concern is that, as I will be bowhunting and I anticipate having to do a little bit of trailing (depending on my shot placement), some other hunter will recover my deer and tag it as his own. This would thoroughly piss me off, as I know there are plenty of unethical hunters out there. While I know all about getting deep into the woods, away from roads and other access points, there are enough hunters who hunt these woods to cause me some concern.

Has anyone experienced situations like this before, or have even had concerns of this sort? In the worst case scenario, how should I handle a situation where I find a buck that I know I shot (based on my recognition of the rack or other physical features) being tended to by another hunter?
