I posted something like this on the deer hunting forum. It was called outfitters and guides. Those deer on large parcels of land to me don't seem to be what we call a high fenced area. Out west the ranches are so vast that a hunter couldn't cover all of it in one hunting trip. I have been to Colorado, Wyoming, Texas and a few other states to hunt muledeer, antelope, and elk. Never hired a guide and scored every time except for the one time I hunted Colorado, by the way the Colorado tripwas the oneI enjoyed the most. We always called the ranchers before the season to get permission and sometimes pay what they call a trespass fee. The most we ever paid was $100.Other times we would take them clothes for their church, apples and other food stuff hard to get out west, and working supplies, such as welding rods etc. Sometimes we hunted public ground. I don't have a problem hunting the ranches as long as I do the scouting, the preparation, and no one tells me what I can and cannot shoot. We always camped out on the property we hunted . Camping out in the west is the greatest. I think every one should make at least one hunting trip out west.
Just my 2 cents.
