I have never shot a deer inside a high fence. I've never had the money. I have shot several "nice" low fence deer in Texas.

You just can't compare Texas hunting (or private ranch) to real hunting situations at home.

Enjoy both for what they are.

Well, now.....Texas is a pretty big state. Very little of it is under high fence. The little bit that is....is generally confined to South Texas and very large ranches. I can assure you "real hunting" exists all over the state. You have lumped one kind of hunting all together.

Where I live in Deep East Texas you wouldn't be able to tell if you were in Alabama or Texas if I blind folded you and just dropped you off. The terrain/habitat is identical.

We don't get to shoot a deer a day though!
