If its not high fenced and the animal is taken legally and ethically its hunting! JMHO!!!!!
So..........is it the fence that makes it not "hunting"??
If so why?
Yes IMO .... Fair chase
So what if it 500 to 1000 acres, thats free rangeing for a lot of deer, if they have everuthing they want in that area (Food, water, hot doe's) Thay have no use to go anywhere else) I have deer on 32 acres that will never go anywhere unless there shot, ut b/c they have eeverything they need and there is no point in going anywhere else. I guess what I'm saying is that it matters how big the fenced in area is.
To me, as long as the fence does not affect the deer you are hunting, then I would feel just like they didn't exist, but like I said in my other post, if the fence that the deer couldn't jump was used as a way to herd them to me, though tasty, it would not feel like a complete hunt IMO ...
