Ya want that I should tie her up to a tree so the fence don't show up in the pics? Do yourself a favor and don't call it hunting.

This place is no different than what it would be to hunt wild elk in missouri. It's like a million acres or something like that and the elk are wild from humans, far from tame. I don't have the time this year to make a trip out west. I have plenty of Colorado elk on my wall. This will suffice for now. Besides this is groceries to me. I just choose to kill and process my own.

Having been to Africa on numerous occasions, I have always been amazed at the tameness of several species of game. Does this mean that the hunter should not hunt African game or a Fallow Deer in Pennsylvania, Texas, or Missouri?
The next item to contemplate is the time you will have to spend away from work. While this is not a major obstacle to some, others have but limited time. We recommend a minimum of two days to hunt your game at our ranch.
However, some deer, while majestic in stature, will never fit into our breeding program. These deer are available from time to time at less than reasonable cost .
The following prices are subject to change:
(8 points or more)
$5.00 licese cost!!
(resident or non-resident)
Trophy Buck 80 -119 score
$1,500
Super Buck 120 - 130 score
$2,000
Mega Buck 131 - 140 score
$2,500
141 - 150 score $3,000-$4,000
151 - 160 score $4,500-$6,500
161 -170 score $7,000-$9,000
171 - 180 score $10,000-$12,000
181 - 190 score $14,000-$16,000
191 - 200 score $17,000-$20,000
Ok, I'll try to say this with a straight face...
Doesn't sound canned to me.
I couldn't do it.

This is a hunting forum...but what you're doing ain't "hunting" anymore than the slaughterhouse that uses a bang stick to down cows and pigs is "hunting"!
Bound only by an endless seven-mile perimeter, our animals are free to retain their natural instincts.
A million acres encompassed within a 7 mile perimeter fence? Holy Shi-it...you might as well just have it penned up in the back yard and shoot it at point blank range. Bwhahahahahaha!! Keep telling yourself how "wild" they are compared to western (free-range

) elk...helll, they're bunched up like a fornicating herd of cattle!
Maybe some of you geniuses on here can calculate how much area is actually encompassed by a 7 mile perimeter fence.

IF the fence was a perfect circle, I'm figuring the area to be 2476 acres.
Somebody double check that, please.

I just did it again and wound up with 2476 ac. That means Craig is wrong.
A circle would give the greatest area:perimeter ratio, so I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt.

I'm in full support of operations such as this. The HFA is one such area where you can bag the deer of your dreams. The Sanctuary is a close second. I'll give you one weekend on the HFA for $2000. You can pick the weekend.
