RE: Is it baiting or simply attracting?
Personally, I wouldn't do it. I want things just as natural as can be. My wife would shoot a deer out of the back yard, and it would be legal, but that ain't hunting to me. If I use a scent, it's one I made or took off the last deer I harvested. I'll hunt the edge of a corn field, but I didn't plant it.
BUT, united we stand, divided we fall. If it's legal and acceptable to your conscious, go for it.
