Although I gotta be honest with ya, David.....I think there's probably more wool pulled over people's eyes than others might htink when people here discuss where/how they hunt.;)

Is that meant to point a finger in MY direction? I certainly hope you're not doing that.

Wrong again. You tell Jeff not to worry about what other people think and in the next sentence you want to brand us as being closet cage shooters like yourself. We WON'T do it because we think it's wrong. Just like I wouldn't cheat on my wife, cheat the IRS, lie, steal or dodge the draft or whatever.

Your speaking for Jeff? You know what he is thinking? I am speaking to Jeff, not you.

Dave you think its wrong to go out and kill deer at the "petting zoo", and kill a nice buck and mount it? I mean its mostly tame deer there. Probably hand fed thru the year.

You want to hunt wild deer, you go out to the mountains of Eastern Ky, TN, or even most parts of WV. Hunt where they have a place to hide, and run. Not just deer that have been cornered by 50 hunters on a few acres that have no where to hide.Just my take on it. I see some of theseguys here around AA and balt county think they are ultimate hunters because of kill numbers. What they don't realize is how easy it is to sit on hedge rows and the deer have no where else to go.

I'm sorry, but that's the way I read it Jeff. He's saying if the rest of us did it, we'd tell you it was OK to do it. He didn't say YOU... he said a few more of us. It's not a nevermind.

I sure wasn't thinking of you in particular David. Dave, its not all about you on these pages.

I know my son wouldn't do it. Just turned 18 and he would rather hunt.

Once again, GMMAT posts yet another irrelevant post, with 143 replies. I could care less what you do with your kid. It's your kid. You want to teach him hunting in high fence, good job Daddy.Forget teaching him scouting, forget teaching him hunting, forget teaching him ethics, just tie a deer to a tree and let him kill it. Great Father/Son bond.

This is one big issue I have with the bowhunting forum. Everybody wants to make bowhunting into this magical state of being, or being one with the spirit of the wild or some crap. Thats just some new age fufu crap. Guys, its killing and grillin.

I rarely post anymore on here because of argumentsbut bigcountry summed it well....

I have worked for a couple high fences when I was a younger man and the deer were in no way "tame".....people with this perception need to visit one not a petting farm.

Topics like these and seeing bowhunters worry what others think made me leave bowhunting for 5 years(besides some meat hunts here or there)and go to waterfowl. Who gives a rats behind what most of these wannabe elitists think anyway?????? My guess is most of then have never killed more than one or two deer in their life so it is a "magical" thing but really it depends on where you hunt.....I used to kill 3-4 deer a year when I had more time, now I dont, sure it is a experience to appreciate but it is also a primitive act of putting meat down..... It is your and your son's choice GMMAT!! Who cares what we think! If you want a different experience and some extra venison but your son dont want to do it, why not try it once???? Sure it isnt the same as hitting the jackpot on a duke in the wild but a deer is a deer at that point.

My 2 cents. Sure I will get flamed for my opinion but oh well!:):(
