Default RE: Poll on hunting in high fences.

Good post

When you talk about high fence, make sure you know all the facts and the sizes of the areas under high fence. Many ranches do this for the sole reason of the money and effort they have in these deer. There are some places that have 100 acres under high fence i wouldn't hunt. Just got back from Texas and they have 6400 acres under high fence and alot of 170 class and up bucks on game cameras but we never saw any of them. We are talking about miles to range and these guys feed a very expensive protein feed while bucks are in velvet. I dont blame them for high fencing because if he was to cross the fence and was a 140 class deer then you know what will happen. Depends on size of ranch under fence, dont think a deer is penned up just because he is behind a high fence. Like i said this ranch is 6400 acres, many mile to hide trust me from first hand knowledge
