Default RE: Should hunting over bait be illegal in your area?

1) You guys make it sound like your area down south is the only area in the U.S. that gets logged off and replanted with pines.Come and visit northern Wisconsin and it will look real familiar to you. The deer still have plenty to eat without corn piles.

2) I might be the only one here that feels this way , but I don't see a big difference in baiting by way of corn piles/feeders or food plots. Just so we're clear on that arguement.

3) It's not about "stealing deer off my land" per say , it's more about the competition baiting causes between one landowner and the next. It's gotten to the point where whoever has the best bait piles will have the most deer on their land. That mentallity has drifted pretty far off from what hunting is suppose to be , in my eyes anyway. I find that pretty sad.

4) This was a poll ,people are going to give their opinions. Just because you may not agree with my opinion doesn't mean "I'm talking sh**" about other hunters"

5) I've seen firsthand the results/problems associated with baiting , so my opinion is based on evidence , not speculation.
