it was either Bowhunter or Bowhunting and it stated that hunters that hunted over bait had lower success than those that didnt use bait, so dont go thinking that its like shooting fish in a barrel like so many people think, I can understand not needing bait in the south but up north is a whole different story.
What are you complaining about then If that's what It states? Whitetails aren't that tough to pattern. Believe me, you will figure It out.
