I know a couple ‘good old boys’ who make damn good money tending hunting tracks for the rich and famous… that is, when they’re not in their grow houses tending $cash_crops…

I can do everything by the non-GMO, organic book… but that Buck I might wanna shoot next winter is gonna spend the summer in my neighbors fields eating GMO – Roundup Ready – beans… plus I ain’t spending the money to put deer fence around 200-300 acres…
Plus that’s alot of the same crowd that doesn’t want anybody to shoot Bambi…
Just feed Bambi right… and take pictures…
smh at that…
