Default RE: Feeding Deer Now Illegal

The corn is spread over a much larger area in a cornfield than around a feeder, and the deer can roam around over a larger area to feed unlike a feeder where they must eat in the same small area day after day. I'm glad to see this regulation; because, we have problems with people baiting deer in our area. In the past three years two people have been cited for hunting over bait (corn). This gives the wardens a chance to write two tickets one for feeding deer and one for hunting over bait!
