Default RE: Baiting deer

ORIGINAL: LetsDoThisDamnThing

Lets be honest guys, feeding is cheating. If you have to wait over a pile of bait to shoot a deer your not a real hunter. Why some states legalize it is beyond me, the only reason I can think it would be legal is if there is an overpopulation of deer. Anyone can put grain out for a couple of weeks before opening day and shoot a deer; not everyone can go into the woods find a good spot and shoot one. As for food plots most are not designed to be hunted over but rather to provide healthy food for the deer during long tough winters and in some cases to promote antler growth. Hunting over a natural food source is a perfectly acceptable way to hunt in my book, those of you who can tell the difference between a white oak acorn and a red oak acorn will know what i'm talking about. PS deer prefer white oak acorns
So you hunt over "naturally baited" areas.
