RE: how is this "hunting"
Charlie, let me ask you this - have you ever considered western spot-and-stalk hunting? Elk hunting? Coon hunting with dogs? Mountain lion hunting? Southern whitetail hunting with dogs? Aligator hunting at night with archery equipment? Wild hogs in Hawaii? Axis on Molokai with archery gear?Bowfishing? On, and on, and on, infinitum...
How many "kinds" of hunting have you tried? Did you ever try something new that you did not expect to like and turned out to like it very much?
I'm trying to make the point that I was dead set against fences from experience and have changed my mind due to another experience. You're making a conclusion based on emotion. The right place will offer a different experience that is challenging and fun. That's not my opinion, that's my considered and enjoyed experience. Been there - done that. Why not open your mind, take the advice of experienced hunters that have been there, make a reservation in the off season and give it a try. I guarantee you, the right place will change your mind. The wrong place will make you angry.
