RE: Fair Chase???

I honestly have mixed feelings about high fences ..and I am sure I will get some flack over this ... on one hand I would never hunt a game animal behind a high fence ...to me thats like a childs game of hide and seek sooner or later your bound to find them and to me hunting is an element of chance ... on the other hand I can understand a land owners reasoning when he has a big parcel of land ...feeds ..manages ..works to make a habitat for the game on his property ..puts in the hours..invest the money ..and raises some nice animals just to have some weekendyokel on a 50 acre piece of property next to his shoot an animal coming off of him ..I think its walking a fine line but I can understand a land owner wanting to keep the animals that feed and bed on his propery from being able to wonder off on an anjoing piece of property by putting up a high fence...now do not take me wrong ..Im not saying I WOULD DO IT ..but I can understand the reasoning of the man that does ... now you guys can start throwing stones at the good Doctor ...but those are my thoughts on the subect and thats all Im going to say about that
