Robin, I know how big 10,000 acres is. I also know why the fence. They say one thing but mean another. If it were as they say, the food brings and holds them, then they wouldn't need the fences. Mother nature would spread these deer out in her own way. And if a deer wanted to... he could move to Oklahoma from Texas. It's a cash crop for them now and they don't want any of them to get away. They say they don't want inferior genes to enter... but we all can figure out what the real deal is. It's simply money and big horns and bragging rights. "Look what I grew". It's your land and you want to do it ... that's fine. But don't tell me it's fair chase when every deer you shoot is over a food plot or a bait pile from a shooting hotel. It's just like a steer feed lot. Yup, this ones ready to go to market.... shoot him. And they all have breeder bucks in pens for sale or breeding. They're just about as domesticated as the local holstein herd. Ring the dinner bell and they will come. 10000 acres is big, but that shooting house doesn't have to cover the 10000 acres does it. It just sits there while you watch a hundred deer feed until someone says.... send him to market.
