Here in Louisiana it is legal, and I do hunt w/corn and use whatever else I can thats legal. The woods here are so thick w/underbrush in most cases you cant see more than 50 yds unless you have a pipe line or a highline to hunt on. Not alot of open shots. With that being said in order to keep deer in my area I use feeders and will also put corn out on the trails to try and keep the deer close to my lease and using the trails.
