rochelle,
That sounds like a good idea, one that I have done my whole life. I have never hunted a baited area,or have never baited deer in any way.

We have a serious tresspassing/poaching problem out here in my area. So on my dad' s land I have put up some feeder' s to hopefully some part of the time the deer can hang out here, instead of hanging out in the wrong area' s, which I know they are going to do anyway " hey there deer I know they will move. But this area I think they will end up hanging out in,because its big enough and has alot of oaks in it, I am just trying to get them to hang out longer with the extra benefits I give them. There is noene in the woods here ever so they shouldnt ever get spooked, unless someone tries to tresspass my dads land which will not be good for the trespasser here in Arkansas.
Besides if I was to hunt the deer in my parents area they would be upset, They like having them around. Kinda like there bird feeders. They like eating deer just not there local ones. So I have many places to hunt deer, and its not in there area.

Thanks
Troy
