If legal in their area, why?
Most hunters expect to know whethera deer was taken with a bow or a gun...correct?... Why?...Each involves a different set of skills and gives a good indication of how the deer was taken.
The same thing holds true for baiting/non baiting.Each takes a different set of skills, and gives an indication of how the deer was taken.
Clearly, if a hunter is comfortable hunting over bait they should not feel any shame in admitting it. They should be proud of their hunt and the means by which theyharvested it.
Displaying a picture without the full story, is to me misleading.
In every other form of hunting in the US that allows baiting..ie..hogs..bears..etc. It is considered standard practice to state whether bait was used when displaying pictures of a harvest. Why should deer hunting be any different?
