Iowa Timber ghost buck

Post by crazyfarmer »

anyone see the pics of that? I had one guy way back in the year send me a pic saying it was killed in Va LMAO. Just found out today it was killed in Iowa on the timberghost ranch which is a 1500 acre high fence hunting area. What fun that is LOL

more info on this forum and pics also
http://www.iowaoutdoors.org/forum/viewt ... pic=227727

their site and check out the ghost hunt pics from 06! Its a maybe 10 year old girl on there with a 200+ inch buck also :roll:

everyone said that deer costed roughly 12k LOL It almost looks like the deer might have had a ear tag in its right ear from the pics. Im sure its loaded with steriods and so forth. Its a gaint, but ill take my open range no fence deer anyday. Anyone else have opinions on HIGH fence hunting LOL... bascially, its name your price and the size deer you want to take home. 100% success rate LOL

oh and the one above netted 220+ typical which would be a new world record had it not been in a cage

what would be wow is if you were hunting in your backyard and both those freaks came running by... oh and you would probably win the lottery the same day also, along with get struck by lightning :lol: :D

I like the post on that forum where they said they probably have debit card machines in the trees, so if you see a buck more than your price bracket, then they just scan the card and approve your for the shot. In the mean time, your wife is watching your banking records and divorcing you LMAO

I have it on good authority that Brian McNamee is the personal trainer for all the whitetails on the timberghost ranch!

I think it should be against the law to hunt animals in a High fenced area just more fuel for the fire from the Anti Hunting Lobby :!:

The one on the left has much more character in the rack, it must be a "real" deer. The Roger Clemens deer looks like an elk rack.

the one on the left looks older to me, maybe a 6.5 year old deer going downhill?

I know everyone that hunts the place says, well its a 1500 acre ranch and they didnt know where this deer was. Im sure out of the 15 guides they had this ones movement down to seconds. Just a matter of who wanted to pay to hunt that section he was in.

maybe if you are disabled and have weeks to live I could see someone hunting this way.. other than that, its just for rich blooded people with more money than they know what to do with

When I was up at the Harrisburg Show a few weeks ago I spoke with the man that owns a hunting preserve in Ohio. He had monster racks and pictures on display in his booth. He was up front and said he was high fence and said you picked the buck from the holding pins, then it is let loose in a 100 acre fenced in area. He said a 200" buck was $11,000 and claimed to be the cheapest outfitter for a 200 incher. He was even showing a video of Roger Ragland killing a 200 plus buck, funny how Roger never mentioned it being a high fence hunt. Even though I could afford to go on an $11,000 hunt, I could never do it. I'm just as happy taking my 100-130" VA bucks knowing I earned them the hard way.

I'd take spikes and does, over any of these "name your price" bucks. That's not hunting.
