High Fence Accusations

Here is an email we received last week...

I would just like to say that your show is one of the most horrible atrocities I've seen yet. Your hunt in Iowa was CLEARLY high fence!!! There is NO place in North America that you can see 200+ deer in one field traveling in a single file line. They HAVE to do that because they have no other place to go. . . .

I will NEVER watch your show again, I will tell my friends and colleagues of mine what a JOKE your show is. It's pretty sad that Matt Duff can't kill a deer in a fence, I guess all the big boys were already bought. . . .
Pitiful!






We have never shot a deer in High Fence, nor will we ever!!!! Our show is based on All Fair Chase and All Wild Animals...Period!! Now, looking at the show, I understand the scene where the bucks came over the hill...It does look unreal. If you ever get the opportunity to hunt Iowa in late season with negative temps, and you have standing beans or corn, you very well might understand!!

We get a ton of emails each week and about 95% are good emails. But there is always about 5% that are down right raunchy! Don't get me wrong, I can take criticism, but please try to get some facts right! This particular email came about an Iowa show we did, and I hunted a 200 acre piece of ground with negative 25 degree weather. I didn't sit up in some warm blind...I sat in negative 25 degree weather on the ground in a Heater Body Suit for 4 hours!!!! I hunted with an outfitter that anyone of you guys can book with, and experience exactly what I did! Tales of the Hunt.

I can handle a lot of things but when someone says I am hunting a high fence operation...It's hard for me to swallow. We hunt good ground, and I will never apologize for that! Our show is based off of Christian men working hard to act right, hunt hard, and be examples along the way. So when I say we are hunting 100% Fair Chase All Wild Animals...You can take it to the bank!!

Remember as we always say "Shoot by Sight-Walk by Faith"!
