Default RE: Does Baiting Deer Founder Them?

SO.....all of these corn and soybean fields here in the Midwest need to be dug up and moved every few daysso that the deers feeding habits don't alter? That makes no sense to me, deer will only hit a feeder hard if there is no other food source readily available, they are mostly browsers, theywon't founder. A picked corn/soybeanfield is loaded with "dropped grain", sowhy isn'tevery deer in the adjacent woods standing side by side for hours on end in these fields?We all know deer do come to these fields and eat, but not to eat until they areon the verge of engorgement.Yes, at certain times you may drive by a field and see a bunch of deer in a field, but for the most part that is in the late winter months.
