Default RE: Chasing the Dream TV Show in Ohio - Question

Chattum was "shooting" at a "deer farm" where they collect scent. It's a no license required facility, so they are basically shooting their pets and don't have to abide by any state laws. I'm not against ALL high fenced operations because some are very well managed facilities and sound like they are challenging to "hunt", but this farming crap is WRONG. You can't really blame the guys that sell the hunts, for that kind of $$$ you could really pay operating expenses quickly. I had to chuckle when I seen their web site and they said that all hunts are 3 day events BUT "IF" you did not get the exact animal you were after then the hunt can be extended at no additional charge. How many hunts anywhere for deer could you actually have a chance of bagging a particular mature animal in only 3 days, that makes it smell funny right there!!! Of course the $18,000 fee for the 200" seems a little steep??? I wonder if the deer are branded and tagged, boy wouldn't that make a shoulder mount to be proud of ?!?!? Tune in next week as they KILL "two of the largest bull Elk ever taken on video"........ on a preserve in Canada!!! How do you think 'ol Shawn would fare on a "real" hunt for WILD animals???
