i personally don't see the problem with baiting. a large part of hunting is controlling the population so carrying capacity isn't reached, as this would result in a less healthy population as whole. it's simple ecology with the aid of bait. just because you put out corn or c'mere deer, doesn't mean you'll automatically kill a deer over it, it just increases your chances. i'm just a dumb hick from eastern nc, so naturally i probably see things differently than a lot of people.
also, let me state, that i do not personally bait very often. not saying i haven't, but it gets expensive. i've killed many more deer without the aid of bait than i have with it. i just don't have a problem with others baiting.
