What you loathe is called "poaching" in your state.

How do you feel about hutners in states where it's legal, Ben? No wrong answer. I respect your opinion.

I've done it, here. I hunted almost the entire '05 season over bait. I never killed a deer, that year. Only when I moved away from the bait did I start to find success.....and find the way I wanted to hunt these animals. I put out bait, yesterday. I had raked up a bunch of acorns from my yard and placed them in a woodlot I'm taking the guy who painted the house into in the morning. I won't even take a bow.....and I'm not sure what I did is even technically "baiting" (nto that it matters, here). Doesn't matter, to me. I hope he nails a slammer.

If I lived in a state wher eit was illegal.....and people were doing it (baiting)....Id hate that, too. No arguments, here.
