definition of BAITING deer??
i live and hunt in new york. it is illegal to bait deer. what i am having trouble with is the use of attractants and which ones are illegal. obviously it is illegal to to dump apples or corn in the woods. the NY DEC website says it is illegal to use a food source or mineral lick to bring deer in. what about products like buck jam or acorn rage?? they are powders and syrups....are they considered a food source? the deer dont eat that stuff they just like the smell so are attracted to the area. i have read over the rules and regs several times but am still unsure. anyone live in NY or familiar with these definitions please help me out...thanks...
