RE: Whats with deer feeders?
Thank you all for the sarcasium, it saved me the typing. 3030win, what do you find exceptable. If I get you right you prefer the "true method of hunting". I guess you strip naked and chase the deer down dispatching them with your teeth, hands, or feet. Have you ever ambushed a deer. If so I cant believe you call that hunting, taking advantage of a deers natural path. You should also be apposed to scouting, that is not sportsman like to find the move ments of a deer before hand and setting up to ambush it.
I have lots of land with feeders all over it. I also grow food plots for the winter and summer months. I do so to have healther deer and to hold does on my land. I have even been known to take a good looking buck from a feeder or plot. I guess I am satan when it comes to hunting. If you dont like the term hunting, then I guess you can call it harvesting of my deer. Either way they are going to end up in the frying pan.
If the trueth be known, a feeder attracts the hogs better than it does the deer. Even with all the feeders going I take more deer away from the feeders than at them. I dont even have a blind near a feeder.
I do mostly still hunting. So I guess that makes blind hunting unethical too. Or I use a recurve during bow season, so I guess compounds are unethical. I also use a pitol during gun season, so I guess that makes rifle hunting unethical. Watch out about crapping in your nest, because when the antis come, how can you truely defend your point with out backing.
