A friend of mine went on a black-powder bison hunt in SD in January. It was a hunt that he paid for and was guaranteed an animal. He took his 12 year old grandson with him and got him outfitted as well. Needless to say, lots of $$$ were spent. When he got there, he was shown a pasture with several animals dotting the landscape. He was told to pick the one he wanted and shoot it. Ain't that a crock?

That's like a story I read on the other site before. The head honcho there went on a bison hunt, got out of the truck with his bow, and walked within 20 yards. That's not a hunt, that's a slaughter.

I think I would be pretty upset if I payed all that money for a hunt...

It's sad that here are people that would pay to do that. I'm going to hunt one,but it will be fair chase,or I won't go.
I've got a ranch picked,but the buffs are free ranging,there's a lot of acres,I forget how many. It's as close to a buff hunt as I can get. I'm still checking it out though.

If in fact that is a fair chase hunt----it might be a funner than hell group archery gig, huh?

My friend was not impressed with his hunt either.
