Default RE: baiting deer

the thinking behing anti baiting people is that the deer come right in . they are very wrong. we have feeders all over our place. we have no stands near any feedersthe deer will leave this property because there is no natural food source other than when the acorns fall.in the past the deer were small and very thin. we only killed one deer this year and it was a 9pt with double brow tines. he scored 154 with a 20" spread. he weighed 205 lbs. we fed year around and had no idea this deer was even there until we got a pic with a game cam. we have 4 more bucks that will score about 150 with spreads up tp 24 inches. it is no different than hunting corn fields,food plots, or even trails.
