[QUOTE="Vermin93, post: 3202474, member: 9526"] Having participated in a corporate funded hunt at one of these kind of places, I think they are here to stay. Yes, some of the clients of these places are wealthy individuals who want big antlers. However, I think many more of the clients are probably corporate guests who are being entertained. They are not paying for it out of their own pocket. The money is coming out of some executive's corporate expense budget. A good analogy would be elite sporting events like The Masters and especially the Super Bowl. It has turned into a huge corporate event. Some of the people at the Super Bowl are actually fans of the teams that are in the game, but many more people in attendance are business guests of corporations and companies. Every year the corporation that I work for takes a decent sized group of key customers to the Super Bowl, and every year the corporation that I work for takes smaller groups of key customers on high dollar hunting and fishing trips. Many times the trips are only 2 or 3 days because that's as long as some executives can be away from the office. That's where these deer farms and high fence ranches and canned hunts come into play. You can get in and get out in less than 48 hrs and have some huge antlers to put on the wall. I am not a fan of it, but it is what it is... [/QUOTE]
