Due to changes at my lease, I had to relocate my camp and setups. Camp and setups are done, but pens are not up yet. Too late to put them up this year or wait until after season? I tend to build larger pens, but could throw up some smaller ones pretty quick. We have a few cows that don’t cause too many problems, but the hogs are another story.

Agree---I built an extra hog paneled pen last Thursday (due to the # of hogs) and deer were feeding in the pen by Friday afternoon and all weekend. I know because I watched them on cellular camera

If you build it, they will come...


If you find yourself feeling useless, remember it took 20 years, trillions of dollars, and four presidents to replace the Taliban with the Taliban.

Sometimes the Universe puts you in the same situation again to see if you’re still a dumbass.

I put a small 6 panel (hog panel) pen up 3 weeks ago on a friday afternoon. Friday evening I had whitetail and axis bucks eating corn around and in it.


High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!
