Moose- sounds like you are all set. When I shot my first Texas whitetail (Edwards County) I felt guilty about taking it at a feeder. But the more I discover about Texas hunting the more I learn that hunting is very different here. With 93% of the land privately owned everyone does what they can to make sure more deer stay on their "rented" piece of land. Most hunters don't see it as baiting in Texas- to us it's supplemental feeding and it increases the odds of us seeing deer. Now that I am not a rookie anymore I am concentrating on hunting the more traditional techniques (trails, river bottoms, groves, funnels, etc.) Don't listen to negative comments. He is obviously not from Texas and has no idea what it's like to hunt here. Enjoy your hunt, it's still a thrill. Once you get your first one you will probably start looking for a lease of your own. Then you can decide whether supplemental feeding is ethical or not.
