okiedog Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 I dont doubt it is a real deer. I just think it has been enhanced to make it look bigger than it already is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tominator Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Dude, have you seen thier prices and packages? Holy crap! $10,000 for a white tail hunt in a high fence preserve for a buck that scores over 170 + a $2,000 trophy fee...you have to be out of your mind! $6,000 for a buck that scores 155-169 + a $2,000 trophy fee, and $4,000 for a buck scoring 155 or lower... its my own opinion, but i cant believe this is called hunting...:helpsmilie::jaw::nono: They can call it anything they want, I think most would agree, it's not hunting.

cb11 Posted January 23, 2010 Report Share Posted January 23, 2010 Well I guess that proves it. I'll keep my eye on B&C's website since that deer is obviously the new world record. Do you work there or something??? This is another obvious example of a skilled photographer or photo editor making this deer look much bigger than it is. You HAVE to be able to see that. Look at the guys boots, whats he wear a size 4??? I'm not saying its not a nice deer because it is, just not nearly as big as the pic shows.

There is nothing about what the deer scores. Anyways B&C does not allow deer shot from high fence hunting in the first place. The trophy watch wouldn't waste their time with this deer, because no one is trying to say it was shot in the wild. It is clearly posted on a website for advertising their high fence hunting outfitter. Edited January 24, 2010 by Tom2008 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb11 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Didn't know that. Good for them. I'm not a fan of this type of hunting anyway, its not real hunting to me. Just raising an animal to trap in then kill. They do have some big deer on the site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It definitely is not real hunting at all. They did raise the biggest whitetail in the world though. Sudden Impact scored 492" at 3 years old and unfortunately died to an infection from his antlers.

cb11 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Seems to me that may show that what they are doing is unnatural. If a pen raised hand fed deer on a strict diet is unable to stay healthy with a set of horns like that then a deer like that in the wild would never make it.

This buck actually damaged his antlers a little bit them hitting the ground while he was eating. Unnatural for sure. I don't think the infection came from how he was raised though. More of just something that happened. They have a quite a few deer in the 400" range that didn't get an infection. Infections can happen and that is a natural thing.

muzzy1 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 The deer came off a game farm.....Not like its a wild whitetail..Ya its huge but the guy probably shot it at a feeder from a heated box blind and payed 20 grand...I love giant whitetails as much as anyone ,but game farms don't do it for me sorry!!!!!

A lot of people when posing for pictures with their animals will sit farther back behinds the animal and hold the animal closer to the camera. It gives the appearance that the animal is bigger than it actually is. Just a simple photography trick that a lot of people use when posing with their kills Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Straight Shooter Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Nice trophy for this guy and that's all it'll be is a trophy for him. High fenced kill, that's just a great advertisement for the ranch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhunt Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 LOL. Email I got on that deer said it was a 400 lb Maine buck. I just don't know that 800 acres inside a fence where you pick and pay for the caliber animal you want is what I would consider to be hunting.
