[QUOTE="NONYA, post: 165719, member: 9100"] Your Muley story brings back several memories where a smart ole buck pulled a fast one and was never seen again,i remember them like they happened yesterday.If it wasnt for those moments where you feel "defeated" in your quest hunting wouldnt be what it is to me,a challenge every time I head out the door and every time I return without cutting a tag gaurantees me another day in the field doing what I love.We have friends that own a big "hunting" ranch in Tx and after spending a week there when i was 12 and shooting some game I will never consider that style "hunt" again.It was a real eye opener when you get the inside info from the owners on how those operations are really run,they know every animal with antlers by name,they have records of where he was bought or bread,they consider the "wild" deer on their ranch inferior and try to kill them off,its a buisness and the hunting spirit is completly void when you see it from their perspective.I have know people who hunt high fence and they all have stories about the huge enclosures and wild game,its still an enclosure and its livestock,not game.The cost of a trophy elk/deer high fence hunt is sometimes more than a good fairchase guided hunt where you will have memories to last a lifetime,an experience,a HUNT!For $1900 you could do a month long self guided hunt in the Montana backcountry that would be the highliht of most hunters entire hunting career wether you bag an elk or not.
