I've gone to facilities of 1000 to 4000 acres. It is fun but not like a true hunt. Yes, the animals were always wary & not always could you get a shot with a Bow. You "usually" see something though.
I Bowhunted a place that had a Axis herd & I wanted to try for one-I went on 2, 4 day trips & 1, 8 day trip & got ONE SHOT in that time at the only antlered Axis I saw. You were allowed 1 hog & 1 Antlered Exotic on a 1200 acre facility. I had 1 shot at a hog I missed & 1 shot at one I killed in those same trips. Cost was $1000 for 4 days of lodging & Bowhunting & no extra for a kill. I did take an Exotic on each of those Bowhunts other than the Axis since I saw none except once.
It is fun & can be challenging if the place is good size & not a guarentee but remember, they are in a fence...Enjoy your trip.
I took a Red Deer on another 4 day Bowhunt & they are DELICIOUS, same as our Elk....
