what is the purpose of the fence if it is fair chase. it is to keep the deer from getting out. i see nothing silly about fencing in animals to shoot them.you can go by many high fence ranches and see deer at the fence.they are not allowed to leave and roam free.this is not a normal fence but one built high enough to keep them inside.that is like saying prisons are built just to house but not keep the inmates inside.fair chase means where the game roam freely and are not fenced inthe only thing allowed to roam freely is the hunters. the hunters can leave.
