Read over this website and tell me what you think...they take breeder bucks, breed a bunch of does with it, and then release the bucks into the wild to "get the genetics back into the wild" I think it is idiotic but to each his own i guess...[&:]

I bet those bucks will never see life outside a high fence.

+1, those aren't deer meant to be "re-introduced" to the "wild" by any means. Those are "high-dollar" deer, one of the biggest threats to hunting that there is today!!!

Those kind of farms produce stuff like this.....

The monster the guy claimed to have shot in OH with a recurve was actually a Farm-Deer, he killed in a pen and paid $12,500 for!!! [:@]

those deer are breeder deer I think, they take the deer that are bred from those and send them to the wild

I don't see anything about releasing them into the wild. I think that would be illegal just about anywhere.

well i saw this website on TV and that is what they said they did, i think on the website they are called stocker deer this is what is says on the website...

Stocking deer behind high fences. Big business and big money in Texas. There are a ton of high fence ranches all over Tejas and they stock them from these types of places.

Not legal to turn pen raised deer loose into the wild population.

trying to play God is risky and dangerous, I won't be around them when the lightening strikes. To me it is the same thing that David Morris does down in TX...and many others out there as well..be happy where you hunt and hunt what the lord has given you to hunt...nothing wrong with food plots and QDM, but this is taking it far beyond the natural world. just my opinion though.
