Next to game farms and high fence hunting tree climbers are the most unethical of all hunters.
To sit up in a tree with bait or scents on the ground dressed in scent-lok camo you have taken away every protective sense that a deer has. (eyes, nose, ears). There is absolutly no skill on the part of the "hunter" the deer finds him instead of a hunter finding deer.
You don't need the ability to shoot, they're seldom over 30 yards, you don't need to learn tracking, still-hunting, even woods craft, just ride or walk to the nearest tree and sit there.
