Buddy killed a giant (High Fence)

I heard there is now a high fence operation at the old Ken-Tenn Clay Company land just off Hwy 45 a few miles south of Mayfield. I think they have exotics as well.

You are correct if you turn in the entrance to the landfill and turn right back to the right it will take you back there to it. Wild Forrest whitetails is the name I believe.
 
I would not want to shoot a high fence deer but what about if the deer is in 2000 acres of high fence. High fence hunting is not hunting" and neither is sitting in a heated shooting house overlooking a field, opening a window, and SHOOTING a deer. You didn't hunt that deer, just happened to be sitting there when he walked out.

Whether you're in a box blind, sitting on the ground, climber, hang on, or buddy stand you are usually just happening to be sitting there when he/she walks out?

All depends on the terrain, set up of food, and use of cameras IMO. If you high fence 300 acres and put a 20 acre bean plot in the middle it's not too terribly different than using feeders. Add in 15 cell cameras monitoring every second of deer mvmt and it's like shooting fish in a barrel I would imagine.

I have to know that the deer isnt going to have to turn around because he cant physically cross a man made barrier constructed to contain him.

I dont use heated shooting house, but to me those are very different scenarios. If he caught your presence, he could high tail it out of the field and not stop running until he enters a new area code. In high fence, he will eventually get to a point where he has to stop. That is no longer free range
 
None of y'all are true hunters, with your factory made bows that shoot 400 FPS and I won't even go into guns. Also y'all hunt from stands and blinds with trail cams and all that stuff. You should do it like me I run them down and off cliffs or leap off my horse or out of trees and kill them with my bare hands. Also I only kill mature 5.5 and older bucks and never hunt small blocks of woods only large lands, 20,000 plus acres. That way they're truly wild without any human interaction. My walls are covered and I donate most of my little buck heads to cabelas and bass pro. But to each their own I guess.
 
My biggest thing is how is a corn are soybean fields legal to hunt and a bait pile isn't that's one rule I've never gotten they both draw the deer to them I have seen the answer to it so don't need schooled on that but it's a bulcrap answer and that's just sugar coating it at best
 
I don't really agree with high fence hunting either. But, some ranches in Texas do it because, they have awesome genetics in their deer that they paid thousands for, and they don't want "their" deer getting out and don't want other "inferior" deer getting in.
