Gulftider...don't sweat it. We have been beat down in the south so often by the main stream hunting community ie:The Pros that awesome bucks don't come from the south, people automatically assume any huge buck killed down here has to be brought in from somewhere else. Congrats on the awesome bucks and keep up the good work on growing those monsters!:letsdrink

I agree, Don't sweat it but the fact is most deer over 160" south of Birmingham are helped in some way ( Northern genes, etc.). I'm sure a hand full or two that are giant such as this one are legit w/ natural genes. Fact is if you have the time and resources to create a southern sanctuary then do it ( Local genes, Northern genes whatever)and who gives a damn about the others. Most of these guys probably never seen a Booner! I haven't seen many and none done here!!! I admire what ever your doing to grow those deer local or not local, High fence no high fence. I believe most people just assume shooting these deer in a fence is like pickingout a Gold Fish at the Fair, any one that has hunted a HF will quicklyadmit it's the real deal only controlled.

Unless your like Noell Feather he was the guy on TV back in the early 90's shooting booners in a big hog pen that were drugged. No, he's not on TV anymore!!!! and neither is his buddy Dan Fitzgerald very often.
