My first time I hunted (or should i say shot) them in a 50 acre pen. They had issues with them getting out on occasion sometimes they didn't even live long enough though. When i asked the guy what kind do they have ie: Spanish, Russian, razorbacks or just plain old ferrel spotted he told me they are of the Rocky mountain strain. LOL I almost pissed my pants laughing! The I shot the first thing I saw which was running behind and elk that was behind a sika which was behind a Hawaiian goat which was behind a Texas dall (you get the picture) I thought I was in THE NOT SO WILD AFRICA movie or something.

Then...... I hunted a 5k acre unfenced plantation in S. Carolina and you could not even compare the two. The guide does not hunt with dogs switches stands everyday, baits corn all year round, does not allow stalking them and hunts only in the winter months to avoid nocturnal in the heat. He has very consistent kill rates. The guy does deer hunts too and goes into detail about the property, the stands and his strategy.
