RE: How to hunt around baiters w/o baiting?
If all the other members are baiting competition is tough and natural food sources may not be top on the deer mind when they think food. I would think it is frowned upon to sit on transition routes to other members bait piles and chances are all roads will lead to a pile of food. Water is an option, as is trying to rattle and call closer to the rut near bedding areas.
When in rome do as the romans, yes bait.
