Why can't I find a hunting spot like this!

[Bill Dance]

Buddy of mine e-mailed these pics. I thought it was pretty cool. Not sure where this was at or if its a deer farm.

Back when I lived in Manitoba, I saw that many times, especially in tough winters. The fish + game clubs feed them all over the province if lots of snow and cold temps hit. I used to feed them on my farm many times. You could touch some of them.
I've seen them pic's a couple of years ago, on a Mb hunting site.
I fed them alfalfa and/or wheat, as that was what I had, they gobbled it up. Others popular feeds are oats, corn.

I saw a herd like that once last may. I made a few wrong turns getting lost trying to find a friends cabin we were using for a bachelor party. drove by some random farmers field and in the glow of my headlights the field looked like the nights sky with hundereds of stars. so I turned into the ditch to get my headlights on the field and I couldn't count how many deer were in that field! it was nuts. looked kinda like those photo's.

[RustyRipper]

definitely a no hunting-zone for them to be that tame

[winbuckhunter]

looks like someone put grain on a road in a winter range to me.. notice none of the deer have antlers.. already shed them!!

[gamehunter6o]

Feeding deer like this is how TB got spread through the Michigan deer herds and will increase the spread of chronic wasting disease in Alberta.:(

Awesome pictures for sure!!! (#3 is my fav)

I saw this before, I believe it was said to be on the US/Canada border.

[Caveman]

Pretty sure it's Clearwater!!!

[whitetailsheds]

Have seen similar scenes along rail tracks up here a couple times. Some cars were leaking canola seed. Wild to see a mile or two with mulies and wt's scattered along it. Lord knows how much more track one couldn't see had deer along it!

looks like the upper kettle valley before they had a GOS on whitetail does

When I was a kid, our family used to go up to the lower end of the Christian Valley every winter and count the whiteys in the fields. We normally would give up counting when we got to a 1000. Was plenty more than that in those days. Probably still is. Another place I used to count deer was up on Antler's Saddle above Peachland. Before the Connector screwed up the migration routes, we would count hundreds of muleys in a short timeframe.

Now how big a magnum would you need to take them all out when they lined up?

I've seen this before, and IIRC, it was Ont or Que.
Or it could be Wisconsin...

..or was it Michigan.
One of those, anyway. feeding a wintering herd.
