Why is that so hard to believe? I keep my feeder going until three weeks before the season. Are you calling me a liar? Not everyone who tries to keep turkeys on their property is anoutlaw. With only 200 acres, and only half of that the turkeys actuallyinhabit,I try my best to keep them happy and on my property foras long as I can. And believe it or not, I stop feeding them three weeks before season, just like the law says to. I have never turkey hunted over bait and never plan on doing it.
