The easiest thing for you to do if you really want to shoot a cow is to talk to a local cattle farmer. Im sure he will let you shoot one of his for the same price that he thinks it will bring at the sale barn.(which is more than it would actually bring, more than likely) OR just go to the sale barn, purchase the one you want to shoot then go let him loose and shoot him. Or you can just shoot it in the cattle trailer that way you dont have to load it back up to take it to the skinning shed.

If you have patience that same farmer will have a cow get sick or one that cant get up after having a calf and you can go shoot it for really reallly cheap if you also haul it off his property.

I can't tell you how many times this crosses my mind...every time I drive by a sale barn seems about right... My only concern is: When I skin it, is the meat packaged in those cellophane wrapped plates? If so, that would be a nice touch.


Edit: Oh, and what's all this political talk on hear? To Wiltznutz--> I don't think you know what a Democrat is...and if you do, how do you identify with those people? Socially, Economically, Morally? Homo? I am just curious what your affinity is to that party?

You just cut the belly open and it all falls out. Labeled and all.

That explains why there isn't a season on them. They would be extinct if you could hunt them.

Edit: Like a Giant Pinata!

In the 90s I used to hunt deer on my uncles place outside Pineville sometimes. Around 2002, he high fenced his 100+/- acres and put red deer on it. There were a couple whitetail (one big one named Honkey) that ended up in the pen as it was completed and he invited me to hunt them. I declined on the hunt, because it didn't seem like hunting anymore, but I went up there and drank Old Forester and caught catfish with him often.

I would only do a commercial high fence hunt if it was a business excursion paid for by the company.

We would probably save money cow hunting. Think about it. You could use a 22 to kill em, don't need a wheeler cause you can drive up to em, no license required......we may be onto something.

Depends how big the property is. My uncle has a 10,000 acre ranch that is high fenced. I'd say 10,000 acres is enough to where you still need to actually hunt the deer

Check out their photos of what they kill. Unreal



What would those things score? Whats the highest-scoring whitetail ever, including non-free range deer?

It's not for me. I would derive no pleasure or pride from taking a monster pet deer. But there are variables. If it's a big place and it's actually fair chase as a result, just uber-managed, I'd be ok with it. But still, it would never measure up to a good representative whitetail that can go where it may. For me.

As for people that frequent those places? Not my problem what other people drop their money on. Don't care. Would look at it like buying a piece of art. Pretty horns, but it doesn't say anything about the hunter other than he could afford to purchase them.

Depends, a guy next to the land we deer hunt has 2000 ac High Fenced. 2000 ac is a shite load of land and still requires you to hunt the deer.


This. My lease in Tejas has 1000 acres under high fence for their true exotic species, and after spending 3 days in the thick brush trying to find a HERD (not one animal) of red stags that had been shot at a few times, I can say that anyone that thinks it's liking shooting an animal on a leash is ignorant.

Now the pig hunts on <100 acre places with minimal vegetation might as well take place at the Stockyard.

You will never convince the people who have never been around one that this is true.
