If it was fair chase, low fenced, I would shoot them. I don't agree with the high fence, growing deer routine that the big ranches pull.

shit i know a guy in south texas that has 30k acres high fence its like its own country there

I've been to one of those ranches on a cull deer hunt. It's not the same. The guide could tell us what was going to happen.

"Here in a bout 10 minutes the feeder's going to go off. 3 deer will come from the right, 2 from the left, and 4 from behind us. I want you to shoot the second one that comes in from the left."

That's just not my style of hunting.

fuck yea see drew knows how to party

High fenced exotics are a completely different thing. They're called exotics for a reason. Because they're not native to the area therefore there's not going to be a chance for fair chase without traveling to other parts of the world.

Those things look like mutants!

They pretty much are, deer don't look like that naturally. Most of those are 2-3 year old bucks with a skinny bottle neck and a rack twice the size of a mature natural 7-8 year old buck would have. It's just plain stupid and they fill up my Texas trophy hunters magazine with ads for that bullshit every month. So much so I didn't even update my subscription. I wouldn't even consider that a trophy more like a " look how much money my dumbass wasted on this deer".

Here's a better pic of that hybrid I caught on Sunday. Figured out he was about 26".

I would much rather have a 140" buck I killed fair chase than a 175" buck I paid $5k to shoot off someone's back porch. And I'd also rather have a 120" buck I killed with a bow than a 140" I killed with a rifle. But I've never gotten around to bow hunting so I don't have to worry about that right now.
