That is one nice deer.....regardless of where it was taken.
Congrats and don't listen to anything any of the DOUCHES on this forum have to say most of them live in prime farmland country where the deer grow pretty big and most of them have no idea where Blind River is
Great vid enjoy the meat and the mount once its completed,
Cheers
Nice Deer and Nice Hunt.
Please feel free to share more hunting stories and more quality videos like this one anytime!
Welcome to the forums and keep in mind that while many people here passionately defend outfitters, others like myself are not a huge fan of such operations. That being said, I have hunted on a pheasant farm before and I do bait deer for the purpose of hunting them.
To each his own and we come here to share stories, teach, learn, discuss, criticize, etc. ;)
You are going to be fine around here ExpeditionMarc, just fine! :goodstuff:
The only douches are the hyocrits who rip Wildtv regularly for airing canned hunts and then all you same douches jump in and agree saying how unethical and awful it is. B!tch and moan about all the "commercial" aspects of hunting and how the all mighty dollar has tainted the sport. You rip TV hosts for being exactly what this guy is and love to say how those TV stars couldn't come to your bush and kill big bucks because your a "real hunter" and don't hunt managed game farms.
We know where blind river is and that is irrelevant. You're all a bunch of internet forum, kissy, kissy hypocrites. Lol
Pretty cheap trip to travel a little farther north and hunt where there are 190 class bucks in nwo.
I find it funny too how a guy who has never killed a big buck thinks only a 160 class constitutes a trophy. How many of you guys with nice 120, 130, or140 class bucks hanging on the wall agree with this? Can all you seasoned internet hunters see that what this thread represents is everything you rip on a regular basis? I think this fella has been watching a little too much trophy hunting on TV and not enough time out in the field learning to do it himself. A sad sorry message to come from the hunting fraternity and you all know it. ( and say it on a regular basis on this board you hypocrites)
Perhaps if you knew how to put yourself in front of say a 130 class buck on a regular basis you'd realize how ridiculous it is to suggest that if you can't kill a 160 or better then paying tens of thousands of dollars to buy a 190 from a game farm is a great hunt.
nice buck, and a memory that will last a lifetime for you. can tell that buck was hit hard when you hit that shoulder.
never mind the nay sayers about your hunt, fact is most of them likely hunt over a pile of apples...
I think most people know where Blind River is and secondly because someone doesn't believe that shooting a fenced in deer isn't hunting doesn't give you the right to call them Douches. So try to talk like an adult. As soon as this was posted most of us knew that it wasn't going to turn out well and it didn't. I'm not sure what the price was to kill a deer like that but I'm guessing between 4 to 7 thousand and I may be wrong. What's harder to kill, a trophy deer in an enclosure or a 120 class buck in some over hunted ministry woodlot? To me that 120 would constitute a greater challenge and therefore be a greater trophy. Some people here make the comparison to pheasant farms. Firstly, once the birds are released they are free to go where they please, secondly we no longer have wild pheasant populations to hunt. Whereas we do have a healthy wild deer herd. This gentleman was honest and said he wanted a trophy for the wall. It was a much easier way to accomplish that goal, but much more expensive! But REAL hunting is going out with the possibility of being successful in harvesting your quarry. Unlike a canned hunt where success is 100% guaranteed.
Nice deer, nice video, why others need to judge or compare especially since you (the OP) never asked...is silly....
congrats on YOUR success.....
Welcome to the forum Marc . I have been wondering when you would join , I was going to comment on your hunting videos that you should join this forum oh yea I'm a long time subscriber to ya :) . Great shot and great buck.. I can't wait to see what other great videos you upload to YouTube.
Great BUCK!!Great Vid. Very nice of you to share your "Success Story"

Don't worry about the negative comments every person is different.
At the end of the day its your buck and you did exactly what you wanted and got to film a hunt for "you" of a lifetime.
And ppl wonder why ppl stop posting on boards??????
To many critics and not enough WTG Congrats Nice Job. You get the idea.
Its a memory you will never forget and you even got to do it with your "WIFE"
Well DONE!

Well OK lets start by saying thank you to everyone who welcome me to the forum. Definition of trophy:
anything taken in war, hunting, competition, etc., especially when preserved as a memento; spoil, prize, or award. Now one can dig deeper and say fair chase ok no problem. Lets not forget I to hunt the forests of Ontario. This was a one time experience that i don't regret. The rush, adrenalin, satisfaction, adventure, journey, travel involved satisfied me to the point of any planned hunt i did in my life. The excitement when this buck showed up was immense. When i pulled the trigger on this fine beast there"s no explanation of the feelings i got when it went down. Can i call it satisfaction hell yes. Now if my son hunted down a fawn that's a trophy to me and him i get it!! I doesn't have to be a monster i get it .To me it was getting a big deer that normally i would never get here in the north and if i tried to fine that beast it could take a lifetime around here or maybe never happen. This is one way to achieve that wall hanger i wanted. I have wasted money on worse things in my life and to me this was worth every penny. Cheers
