...I do want to say this: comparing baiting to crop fields is stupid as hell. You would have to be a complete dumb ass to comparea 30 ft baitpile tomiles of crop fields. That one blew my mind.
Then I guess I'm a dumbass. Becuase all of the crop fields and food plots I've seen and hunted near have been under 10 - 20 acres. A statement about a 30 ft baitpile just shows your complete ignorance. In south texas there is VERY little natural food. Its a dry world down here. If we did not feed the deer, chances are we would loose just as much in the summer heat and the worst winter kills in the winter. Not to mention the fact that no deer in its right mind would ever leave the security of its thick brush on it own.
And the last time I checked, I dont pay to hunt here.
