I have another question for you guys that say baiting is wrong etc. Do you think it is wrong to hunt over an oak tree or a fruit tree? Would you think it was wrong to hunt that tree if it was the only one in the area and the deer congregated to it?
Silent thats a whole different thing. An oak or fruit tree is natural and has always been there so if you want to hunt over it the more power to ya. But throwing corn out a month before and throughout deer season is just wrong to me. but to me its a pretty much cheating. What kinda story does that make anyway?...Well the deer came straight to my corn and starting eating it for a prefect 20 yard broadside shoot and i put a bullet right behind the shoulder. WOW exciting stuff.
Does it really matter if a tree puts the food on the ground or a human? Do you not get the same end result. Changing a deers pattern? One walk into the woods could do that. Natural? I bet a lot of the trees that we hunters hunt over were planted by a someone. Natural? The only ones that have a non hypocritical viewpoint are ones that are against baiting, lures, food plots, and anything else put out into the woods to "lure" a deer into range. It's O.K. to feed them this but not that? To lure them in with this but not that? This is "natural" but not that? This changes their pattern but not that? That's cheating but not that...............................[:-]
