One thing is for sure, Jim boy. YOu sure have a way with words. It shows that you know what you are talking about, and your lack of tolerance for opposing points of view. Enjoy your life, pathetic as it might be.
Mostly, I have found that those who cuss and use gross verbiage do so to hide their lack of knowledge and to mask their depth of understanding. Sorry, but this is just my opinion. Since you probably couldn't have a thought that would interest me, I think I shall put you on ignore.
Moderators, if you perceive this to be out of order, you have my permission to delete the post. If it quacks, has webbed feet, and is covered with feathers, it is probably a duck.
Pathetic as my life might seem thru your rose colored glasses I will never lower myself to your level of baiting a deer to kill it.
If you lack the skills or moral aptitude to kill a deer without baiting maybe you should take up golf!!!
And of course we all know what they say about opinions. [

don`t lower your level to baiting just keep it at the high level of food plots. More land , more money, more time so your way is right. PLus there is no skills in shooting a deer next to a bait pile. I mean once the deer gets there it just rolls over and dies? Don`t evan have to know how to shoot or hit the deer in the right spot. It`ll just gut it`s self and evan skin and buthcher it`s selfall over the bait pile. Your right bait piles take no skill what so ever.
My opinion
Sorry you saw fit not to accept my apology, Jim. Perhaps you didn't notice that I edited the post. You will have to deal with that, not me.
Just for the record. I don't hunt over bait, or even feed plots, here in PA., but where it is legal, it is no more unethical than hunting along a cornfield. Those who have a major problem with doing what is legal in other states should not do it. They should not try to impose their values on others though. I have not tried to convince any of you that you personally should hunt over bait, next to a feed plot, or for that matter next to a white oak tree. All of my hunting for deer and turkeys is done in the mountains on state gamelands. You must do what you feel is ethical within your values system. Please refrain from thinking that because you think hunting over bait is unethical that that makes it so for everyone everywhere.
I am going on a black bear hunt in May in Alberta where baiting is legal. It makes absolutely no difference to me what some on this message board might think of that. In my ethical framework, it is OK, since without baiting, there would be precious few bears taken in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick, in all of which provinces it is legal. If you choose not to hunt this way, you should not go. I am going and will have a great time. By the way, the last time I checked, the outfitter had one opening for that week. Anyone want to join me in sin?
