mammasboy,
You DO make a very good arguement. One question. Do you set up your food plots with the idea of attracting deer or is the idea habitat improvement? I think that how each of us answers that question would probably dictate how we view this subject.
But don't tell me that "thrown" bait can't be work
I never said it couldn't work. It is actually illegal in my state but I know several people in SC that do this with success. I guess it is just my personal opinion. I would rather go to the trouble of doing something that provides food sources year round.
