I have about a 10 acre trap that is high fenced that I use to keep some of my ibex. I fenced it off a few years ago and had no animals in it. This afternoon I made a survey. I have now have 5 whitetail and 4 axis not counting ibex in the trap.

That's impossible. Deer can't clear a HF. Have you been drinking or smoking the gonja?

What is a gonja? Actually it is my fault. The fence runs along a county road. There is a creek that runs through the trap. The county put in about a 4' pipe for the water to run through. they did this after the fence was put up. Now the part of the fence that is where the drainage pipe is is only around 4' high on the road and 7' high on the inside. Deer jump in but they don't usually jump out. Some do but the majority don't.

Are they tied to a post or sturdy tree? If so just go with the flow and charge $5000 a piece.

we have a lane that is about a mile long, high fenced on both sides to access our property. the other day i am driving when i see something running down the middle of it.

about 400 yards up the road, is a yearling doe. i phone to the house and tell them to open the gate, which after doing I was able to get her in the gate, in effect getting a "free" deer.

I was very excited to have her in our herd, as she has apparently figured out teleportation and may use this to lead some bigger bucks from other ranches back into ours.



For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

If I had any one out to "Harvest" any of them they would have to keep it a secret. Can you just imagine the bad mouthing that would go on if people found out they were taken in a 10 acre trap. It would probably be someone who bad mouths HF's that actually did the shooting.

High fences are like bean burritos. The gas they emit is overwhelming. But the huge drop is the satisfactory no man can resist grin

My old boss used to say that your pleasures change as you get old. Now having a good Dump is as good as sex. I have no idea what that has to do with H.F.'s but 7mag got me to thinking about it.

Having deer within a hjigh fence when it is put up is one thing, tut to trap or entice deer into that high fence without a TTT permit is another.
