For starters rimrok job needs to check the scoreboard from last night, sorry buddy time to change the avatar JK.

I agree with bowtech love in general. 5 to 10 gallons of bait will not completely change the deer movement in an area. The only way such a small bait pile will work is if the hunter has done his scouting and puts the bait in area where the deer are already feeding, traveling, bedding etc. Used in that way five gallons of bait is no differen that using doe piss, c'mere deer, buckjam, or any other legal attractant.

However a permanent feeder or food plot will permanenttly change deer patterns and stack the odds in a hunter favor considerably more than a moderate bait pile.

I also hunt in packerland (GO PACK), and IMO the restrictions on baiting are unfair to those who may not hunt on private land or land they own, and cannot plant food plots.
