It's a full time job of shooting does so therefore a lot of pens are out of balance. Wild deer can move and find food. Deer in the pen are kinda there to stay

I got a buddy that has a big fenced in hunting preserve in Wisconsin and it's not as easy as you think to kill one. His are not pets and will run when they see or smell u and he showed me some pics of about ten diffrent bucks that had never been seen since they were put in there. He has about 500-600 acs and they have plenty to eat and lots of trees to rub on and a lot of them have the white colored a antlers.

Kill a deer in a phone booth for all I care. Why does this matter so much to some people? As long as it's not illegal, it ain't any if my business how the next guy hunts.

Only pen I've ever been in was row cropped. Soybeans and alfalfa. Then winter wheat in the fall. Those deer are fat and happy, and there's still plenty of privet hedge around if they get hungry.

You guy's that think that deer in high fenced operations are tame are full of sheeiit.
