RE: Would you take a free hunt at King Ranch?
ORIGINAL: springer01 My how you can feel the Texas love in this thread. Funny how all ranches in Texas have to be high fence and genetically enhanced deerand shot right at a feeder just like all Texans wear cowboy hats and boots and get big fat oil checks every month.  Guess they are both pretty common stereotypes.... just as long as we know the truth who cares.

My point exactly. You, being the idiot you are, do not know the difference between taking advantage of nature, and an artificial advantage. I would like to think bowhunters are a little more sophisicated than your normal hick with a gun, but you prove quite the contrary. |
RE: Would you take a free hunt at King Ranch?
yes I would

RE: Would you take a free hunt at King Ranch?
Just makes me wonder how many of the "Texas bashers" have even been within 500 miles of Texas... Generally I try to keep my mouth shut about things I have not experienced first hand, or at least let people know my opinions are not based on experience.[:'(]
Less than 1% of my county is under high fence. I don't know a single person that feeds protein, or has genetically altered his herd through any means EXCEPT selective harvest. The only "pen" for wildlife I've ever seen was in Bwanajims post. We did have a nontypical that scored 236 get killed last year, about 10 miles from my house. The ranch it was shot on covers 26 sections, all low fence. There was another that went 192, and the year before several more. The main reason it cost so much to hunt here is because of all the folks from other places with lots of money andmismanaged game populationscome here to hunt. It's hard to hold them off a 2 1/2 year old deer cause it's the biggest one they've shot in their life. I have hunted since I was five, and my father has never "bought" me any animal. My boys have paid sweat and blood for the animals they have killed. We never even paid for a lease untill 2 years ago, untill out of state hunting drove the price of land through the roof. I learned to deer hunt by spot and stalk onthousands of acres, not on my butt in a tree stand. I'll tell you what, come down here and I'll show you the meaning of tough hunt. We'll walk about 10 miles doing spot and stalk on open grasslands with a bow. Find out some facts before you start painting the whole state with that broad a brush. |

Who in their right mind would pass up a guided hunt for free? I mean come on...it's FREE. With BIG buck potential.

RE: Would you take a free hunt at King Ranch?
Who wouldn't? Anyone who says they would not, is crazy! Bet if the offer was real their story would be different. |
RE: Would you take a free hunt at King Ranch?
And yes, I would take the hunt. Wouldn't even think about it.

RE: Would you take a free hunt at King Ranch?
HELL YES I would. Are you thinking of donating one?:D

The ranch it was shot on covers 26 sections, all low fence. They also don't realize the sheer size of the King Ranch. To put it in some perspective for them, let's justput it this way... The King Ranch is approx.825,000 acres, nearly 1300 square miles.... Larger, in fact,than the entire State of Rhode Island. So, if it's unethical to hunt the King Ranch, it's unethical to hunt in Rhode Island.  |
