RE: Poll on hunting in high fences.
Charlie you ole chicken choker, you made me remember on of my dream hunts........................... It was 20 minutes before sunrise, slowly I unlocked the gate and slid in....... Oh man did I blow the whole hunt? The gate creaked as I swung it shut!!!! I quietly eased my way over to the blind, I pushed the button and soon the elevator arrived.....man there is no way that I will get that bruiser now, the elavator door squeaked when it opened!!! The maintenance guy is toast. The door opens into the blind, I step in and turn on the news and settle into the shooting chair and wait for the sun to rise.
Man it must be close to 10 degrees, I sure hope that buck isn't cold, I turn up the blind thermostat a hair and watch the sunrise over the distant fence. Ah yes.... the great outdoors! Ah man I got to hit the head!!!! I enter the bathroom and releive myself, I make sure I save the flush for after the kill, don't want to spook the buck ya know.
Man I hate the wait! That feeder doesn't kick on for another 10 minutes, oh well that is all part of the hunt I guess. Just then the stock market report comes on TV I notice the feeder has kicked in!!! Quickly I grab the remote and mute the TV and slide open the window overlooking the feeder! Oh yea, my scouting has paid off, here he comes.....man this is ridiculous, they need to adjust that feeder to give me a better broadside shot... how in the world can someone be expected to hunt under these conditions!!!
Finally he turns broadside...slowly I settle the crosshairs right behind his shoulder, I check the windspeed and direction and adjust my scope for a 10 mph wind out of the west for a 25 yard shot..... I slowly squeeze the trigger....BOOM!!!!! He drops like a ton of lead bricks as the Weatherby barks! I settle back in the easy chair and fire up a cuban as the boys fire up the ATV and field dress the 195 buck, and trust me he had better measure up or I will be canning someone over this. Ah yes another one to put up in my office to show off my manhood.
