Fenced hunting is just creepy. A friend of mine, avid muzzleloader and rendevous participant, won a buffalo hunt somewhere up in Kansas one year. She went up there and shot the buffalo with her Hawken, dropped the animal in its' tracks. She later told us it was like shooting some ranchers' poor old Hereford cow.

An Indian, snuck into another Indians farm and shot one of their livestock. Agree with earlier posts, not poaching. Or hunting. Well, BGG, I don't think it was another Indian's farm. These folks lease the land from the tribe no doubt "Owned and operated by the Lindskov Family, the Timber Lake Lodge is like no other hunt on earth. Our goal each day is to offer our guests an unmatched opportunity to take one of the greatest Rocky Mountain Elk, American Bison or Whitetail and Mule Deer ever, along with unsurpassed guest amenities." Isnt that a special picture......

Here's a close approximation of what's on their website: Come and shoot our finest imported bull. He won 1st in class at the Royal Highland Show in England in 2020. We guarantee a shot of no farther than 35 yards from a bench across flat open country. For safety reasons, you will be backed up by 3 of our experienced staff shooters, all carrying 458 Winchesters. $20,000. We charge double if you hit the man holding the bull's halter rope.

Friend shot a 380-400 class bull elk there. Drove up to him on day 1, got out, shot him.
Terrifically exciting, suspenseful hunt.

Anybody want to shoot my dog for $20k
I’ll even take him off his leash and let him run inside his kennel to make it more sporty.

Far be it from me to give a schit how someone spends their money.......but sheesh. I don’t give a schit either. It is what it is. I’ve seen outfitters in the Hill Country go to the sale barn and buy a buncha sheep consisting of Corsican, Mouflon, Texas Dall, and Hawaiian Blacks and load em’ up in a big horse trailer and then take em’ out and turn em’ loose on the property they had access to. Then dudes would come out and shoot one of each and they’d have accomplished the Texas ram slam. This was back in the 90’s and dudes were payin’ a thousand bucks for each one of the big rams.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Buy a deer for $9k, set it up with some feed and stuff in a high fenced pasture, charge $20k for someone to come harvest it for you. What a deal. Prolly easier than dealin' with all them sheeps and cows and such.

The "ranch" is on Rez, land. So they are just pretending then I guess. The whole high fence livestock bullchit is only a couple ticks less disgusting than the reservation system. All of it is bullchit. Combine the two and it stinks worser than cat schidt.

This thread is going to make a whole lot of tejanos hotter than a jalapeño. Wonder if they use illegal aliens to build the fences up in the Dakota's too?

Like many raising deer like cattle isn't hunting at all. Feeding supplements, shots to grow giant antlers then charging $$$$$$ to shoot a pen raised, fenced in animal has nothing close to do with real hunting.
Did I make you cry......boooo hooo, life goes on.

Just an observation from the peanut gallery, but I've stocked many a pond for guys that were avowed "anti high fence" hunters. Lots of competition for my spent brood stock steelhead, guys would get really pissy if they couldn't get them one year..... We used to sell canned pheasant hunts at the RMEF banquet, for crying out loud. No one ever saw the irony.....
As long as the critter gets eaten and they don't break the law, I really don't care if they shoot a rabbit, a pheasant, a cow, a pig or a deer.....

Didn't know you had access to salt water. Gotta admit, I've eaten a boatload of stocker trout in my life. I just can't quite equate that with a high fence, pick your animal and we'll hold them until you get here deal though. There would have to be a diver below putting my hook in the fishes mouth. But, I get what you're saying, as long as they eat it (or someone makes use of it) and it's legal.............Oh well, to each their own.
