well i wasnt able to find an answer anywhere so i ended up emailing the ODFW office and i had two sepeerate emails sent back to me both saying that it was legal to bait deer and elk. it is known that baiting bear in oregon is illegal but the deputy administrator larry cooper and game program manager tom thornton assured me that it is within the law to bait deer and elk in oregon.
