RE: "Baiting Vs. Food Plots"
I dont think baiting and food plots are the same at all inmost situations. Hunting a bait pile on willing deer is more like an ambush, where hunting a food plot is just that, its hunting a food plot. When deer that are willing to come in during daylight and feed on piles you can easily ambush deer. Where hunting food plots you have to set up where you think they may enter which could be anywhere in that plot which you could hunt for weeks and never get a shot.
