You have to read the prior posts...

Business must be slow, I guess I can see why. Seems a little weird you are so familiar with my posts.....hell, you know them better that I. I don't know you or anyone else on here but this is one of the reasons I don't respond to anything you post. A little scary when some "dude" is quoting me and acting like he knows me....weird.

it takes two seconds to see all your posts. Click name and posts by user

Wait a minute, you only know 28 and 40 section ranches! I bet a hf wouldn't have helped.

You don't respond to me because you have shot all of your ammo on me....the video, the look at all the posts you have comment, the same quotes over and over.... this always occurs when you are in search of logic to support your argument.....brain lock....pattern repeated....

You can click on your name and see all your posts, maybe this would help you solve this problem?

Ahhhhh. I couldn't care less to see that but I guess others choose to spend their time studying folk's history. Yall have fun with that!

I also hunt a 2500 acre place too....Best friend owns The 2500 and 200. I own the 40 and lease the other. Both are about as opposite as you can get. High plains vs STX. But anyway HF wouldn't matter. I cant get in that canyon with out blowing him out. Tried. He baffled the hell out of me. Literally would get him at night on camera at two locations both at the mouth. I spent two days behind a spotting scope before I found him. He has two spots with in the canyon he will bed depending on wind. He can jump up a 8ft canyon wall what do you think he will do at a HF. Get to the fence stop and wait for me to get there and shot him...lol

How many acres are actually hunting each sit? Truely cover with Firearm?

So about this glass dome I'm going to build over our ranch. I'm thinking one way glass so the neighbors can't see our deer, but we can see their deer. Bullet proof glass of course.

I'm not sure why this debate always hinges on whether or not it's real hunting. To me, the much bigger issue is that high fences have led to the proliferation of invasive, nonindigenous species. Let's yell about that for a few pages.

I think it would nuke every thing in side, kind of like a magnifying glass and ants..

Lets. Now if these fences keep all animals captive, how did all these exotics end up free ranging all over the hill country and west Texas? I must say when I was lucky enough to be invited to JohnRussell's place between Rocksprings and Del Rio, I thought it was really cool to be able to shoot an Axis and Aoudad in the early spring. I'm torn between protecting the native game and having game to hunt year round that are extremely tasty. (axis) 25 years ago when I hunted this area there were nothing but whitetails, javelina, and turkey. Now hunting Johns' place almost seemed like Africa. Lol.

We damn near wiped out the whitetail. If we really wanted an animal gone... It would be gone

checked on a thread put on video on FB it done gone missing... Tis a conspiracy i tell ya... tis part of that thar ignorance list

marke, I take it from your many posts that you must be a true hunter way above the rest of us. I also take it that hunting a HF would not be enough a challenge for a hunter of your caliber. Is what I am thinking correct?

You never asked about the picture. From that point I can cover 300 acres+- with spotting scope.

I'm hunting there for a reason there is a big boy that lives right there seen him once with out a gun and a few others have seen him. Seen him also with spotting scope in the brush a few times. He litteraly lives in that draw. He won't come to corn and I cant Sniper him due to the thick brush. I can cover 300 acres with a spotting scope and still only have maybe 20 acres of openings but litteraly can only shot on an 8' X 400 yard sendero.
HF won't make him come out of the brush. Rut might if a doe is hot. Would a HF make him come out nope.

Point was HF wouldn't matter I can only hunt about 300-400 yards on a 3 way on the majority of that ranch. How many acres are you truely hunting(can cover with a rifle) each time you sit?

The ranch is big but small compared to neighboring but at same time because of vegetation you can't hunt much at a given time. So what's the difference between big and small ranches. You can find core areas easier on a big ranch because you can travel more ground but hunting doesn't change you can only see and shoot so far.

That was my point in the 40 and 28 sections, cool I hunt big property but am I really hunting all of it.... Nope. Just like if you hunted a 400 acre HF.... Are you hunting all of it? not unless it's a plowed feild

Sad actually ...

I think the majority has the same outlook and thoughts ...
Have fun and enjoy your hunts and harvests ...
But you have a handful that seems to seek enjoyment in de moralizing and degrading Hunters practices and methods. I can't put into words how many people I encounter when taking about THF that comment on a few that seem to stir the pot and demoralize hunting as the few we have. They actually laugh at it and other sites do also. I do NOT hunt a HF, but it's amazing how narrow minded people are and degrade Hunters with the Elitest mentality. Anyone here that has ever had the pleasure of sharing a field or a hunt with Pitchfork or BoBo would NEVER describe them as the childish comments above reflect. With out a doubt two of the Classiest and Unselfish Human Beings you have ever had the Honor of sharing a Hunt with, they just have the intelligence to spot Ignorance a mile away and have the expertise and field time to back it up...

Sad that a couple of "stirrers" decide to gain attention by degrading others accomplishments and hard work with the constant belittling of good hard working people with mindless attacks..

I would be ashamed to be associated with it. As so many good people have stated on here so many times, if it's moral, ethical, amd legal go enjoy your self and have fun... Isn't that what hunting is about, but you have a cancerous cell of miserable elitist who feel it's necessary to degrade Hunters Descisions.

No. I'm very passionate about hunting and that is all I do whenever I can. I'm not above anyone in any aspect. I just don't like high fences....never have.

Why so critical of others then?

As pappy once said: would rather be hunting than working, but a wise person realizes by working can aford ta hunt... First lease was on was $200.00 for a year... 24-7-365 hunting, got on it cause had hogs... Family lease, wife & kids, camping... We run up credit card, on building house... Taking old one moved it ta were be sitting here typing, plumbing, wireing, sheetrock, new roof, insulation... Repairs on vihicals, trips back home ta visit family & friends, Christmas gifts for kids... Just every day living, when first starting out, on a $7.22 an hour income... At work constantly being told how bad times are, while shoveling down in dirty nasty hole... is about leasing, if ya wanna hunt... Our kids didn't know how poor we was... When credit adviser said: leasing is a bad investment ... i took responsibility & we walked out... Didn't get on leases that were about the big bucks , if it was legal, up ta tag holder, was about family, friends, & en & chillen ... Like ma & pa usedta do... Seen the ya gotta pay play, the culling games, & hunting is a sport? We educated kids about money... Just cause person can't spell, doesn't mean can't think for themselves... 4 deer county here, got feeders, food plots, yet year after year would find me down at WMA archery only, & the 3 months hog any legal means... As pappy says: Tis me, & who i wanna be... asked this in poll forum bout HF... What does a HF have ta offer that LF doesn't have...

Because it's people like him whose job is to tell the rest of us that only what they like is right and even though they can't stop another from doing it they will just belittle them on every thread they get a chance to.

Do you not get enough attention that you need to appear stupid..

I have seen better intelligence in a sandwich... If you can't speak in an intelligent manner go away
