I'd go. I'd rather a business hunting trip than a golf trip.

I'm sure they are fed protein pellets as most are on those ranches. That will be the best deer meat you have ever ate.
Commercial venison that I've had in restaurants tastes bland. If one was serious about producing high end, commercial venison, you would have them on a diet of acorns and fruits. Those jamón iberico hogs from Spain fetch like $100 a pound because of their diets. The earth tones of venison (and free ranging game and livestock) are the assets of the meat.

If its done right and the property is large enough you wont know its fenced. Just go and have fun like someone else said its free!

This is what I told myself the last time my boss asked to visit a brothel in Reno

LOL ive heard some high fenced hunts can be a challenge just because the deer are looked at so much and see a lot of hunters. Will be interesting to see how it goes for you. Have fun anyway and im sure you will eat some good food on your stay.

The expensive part comes when you shoot a real nice buck and want it mounted. Be careful to follow the TN regulations regarding transporting game from other states. The Hunting guide tells more on page 21. Good luck!

Post a pic of that big rascal after you shoot him. High fence or not, you'll be hunting like a lot of the ranchers out there do, over corn. It's just a different type of hunting. Congrats on the opportunity.

We went to Texas 4-5 years ago on a hunt to help thin down some does and some hogs on a 1200+ acre ranch that was under high fence. The deer there were WILD and more wary than the does I have shot here in East Tennessee this year. The hogs were...well...hogs.
Have fun and don't sweat the details.

I would gladly take your spot. I've been to a high fence and had a blast. It's exciting to see so much game. Don't worry about what people think, do what you think is right and have fun. Anyone to turn down a free hunt is crazy in my opinion as long as its legal.
