No, it's not natural but neither is putting a treestand in a tree or using a gun or bow to kill a deer. So yes a food plot, treestand and weapon all give you an advantage. But despite you using any or all of them together, the deer has the option to leave. Domesticated livestock on these fenced in ranches do not. They wait until someone shoots them. And even then it can be a long wait while someone tries to shoot them. Perfect example is that bear that country singer chased around a 3 acre pen with his bow and arrow for hours before he could finally take him. Man that must have been the hunt of a lifetime.
