Skeeter you're right. the first time i saw them hunt bears on TV over bait i thought thats not fair! but i didnt understand how they hunted them. if thats how they get there bear so be it.
i have never seen a decent buck feed at any of my feeders. they may i don't know. i get a kick out of seeing the tracks and knowing they have been there. i would love to have a camera maybe someday i'll have the extra money. my feeders are really more to hold hogs in our area. now some may think it unethical to pursue them with dogs (hogs that is) but i don't care about opinion really. you don't like the way we hunt so don't pay attention to us!
3030 you say you hunt on deer trails thats kind of like waiting in the drive way huh? in my area trails would be hard to hunt . i have had the previ to be able to hunt everyday for the last three years. i hunted a 40 acre field mainly a year or two ago. i tried to pattern where the deer would enter . i got to tell you they were unpredictable.
But if that style of hunting suits you good luck . i'm not going to tell you that sitting in someones hallway is unsportsmanlike.might try the bedroom sometime it's been productive for this multitype hunter. kitchen works too sometimes. just depends on those wild unpredictable deer.
