I recently watched an episode of "the Spirit of the Wild" where uncle Ted received a letter asking him why he always hunts over bait and does he ever hunt with out it. He said no, we all hunt over bait. Whether it's a natural funnel, corn field, water hole, feeder, bedding area or trail. He said that all of these areas are places where we know deer will be and then we will ambush them. I'm not saying that I agree with Uncle Ted on this one but it does raise an interesting point. The definition of bait is "food used to entice fish or other animals as prey", so in that regard I think Ted is wrong, but I get what he is saying. I personally am not against baiting and im not saying that you are wrong, I respect your opinion. I just found that to be very interesting.
