Your initiation to the club requires you to elaborate on your views of the following topics:

- High fence ranches
- Antler restriction laws
- Indian corn as an attractant
and since you're a bow guy..
- Crossbow use during archery season

High Fenced Ranches- I work on one. Good for people wealthy enough to own them or hunt on them. Opportunity to shoot huge deer or exotics. I like the exotic side of it, since it gives people a less expensive alternative to actually going to another country. I wouldn't say it's very sporting, especially on smaller properties. Too many high fence ranches, and the price of hunting will be too high for the average person. (me) The managing side of it is great cause I don't have to worry about hogs/coyotes or emigration on the property. Prefer to hunt free-range, but managing high fence is definitely fun.

Antler Restrictions- I'm a fan. Keeps yearlings and some 2.5's from being killed. Can be frustrating when a mature shooter has the high and tight genes though. Gives me a little more confidence knowing young bucks I pass aren't gonna hop the fence and get shot. (I'm sure that's a great topic, too.)

Indian Corn- I'm not very familiar with this topic, so don't have much for you. Never used it.

Crossbow use- Not really for or against it. I don't use one, but that doesn't mean someone else shouldn't. I think they're great for younger kids, elderly, or injured people that cannot draw a bow but still enjoy slingin' arrows. If they're accurate with it, good deal! To each their own on this one.



Hope I didn't step on too many toes! LOL thanks for welcoming me!
