magicman, you have hunted northern wisconsin, right. I was wondering if you baited. Where we hunt there is no food source, no fields. There is tons and tons of woods and deer dont just stay on one trail. you may hunt weeks to even see a deer without bait.
I hunt mainly northern Wis. public land. I have dabbled with baiting in the past. It's tough hunting for sure. I killed a 10 pointer with my rifle this year. No bait. It was1 of the 2 deer I saw all season. 2 of my neighbors sat over corn from Sat.- Thur and never saw a deer. You have to really put in the time to learn where they bed and how they travel.
