[QUOTE="Headhunter, post: 5417261, member: 652"] To me, hunting deer on parcels of land near inhabited areas is can be really tough, especially if they get hunted a lot. Killing deer in backyards where they are fed, basically have no fear of anything, and are as close to being pets as they can be is just that, killing deer. It has nothing to do with hunting. I have nothing against actually killing the deer, and I am sure they eat as good or maybe better than deer killed in some other areas. But to post about a being a great hunter or it is a record, etc. is not even close to fair chase or hunting. So you feed your dog, cat, pig, horse, etc. and they know when they are fed, which backyard to go to, they are never bothered and one day you decide to go out and shoot one of them to eat. Would they be hunting? In neighborhoods in some situations and especially in people's yards it is the same when applied to deer. And yes I have personal experience in Belle Meade, TN. The deer, even great bucks, would stand there and look at you. It wasn't but it was almost as if they were waiting on me to give them food. Nope, not interested. [/QUOTE]
