Thanks for your reply smitty, this forum is doing me some good. I never realized how little I knew about hunting whitetails. I've been spending more time reading and less time typing lately. I'm just a little slow to catch on. Hope you have a great season..Fletch

Good Luck All....Fletch

I live in Wi. I used to bait, and had some luck, but i am glad its banned. In my area where i own 40 acres there is a lot of deer, but i live 3 hrs away. The guys that live all around me had the luxury of baiting daily, or even worst weekly by piling 200lbs out at one time, making the deer nocturnal. It became a big competition thing and i even ended up buying electric feeders just to keep up so i saw some deer on my land. Now this is farm country, mixed with oak woods, so baiting is not needed, and i believe actually hurts the hunting in the area. I gave it up before the ban and still managed to see deer by hunting the natural food. I think if most hunters would put a little effort into finding the natural food sources and make a game plan they would be surpised at the results. I know some of you wont agree but it just shows that you are not capable of thinking like a deer and hunting like an preditor. Give it a try, the acorn crop is plentiful. if you dont have acorns, find them,or get a new hunting spot. if you cant find them the deer are eating something or they wouldnt be there in the first place. I can take anyone to the public hunting land near my place and put them on deer every night,i have done it for friends already. I just find a clearcut area and find a close by oak patch and there will be deer . Most guys underestimate the power of acorns even more so if they are white oak.

However, you admit that you used to bait them, there is a difference between feeding and baiting them, you are no different then the guy loading up the 200 lb piles, TO ALL!!!!!!Smitty1 <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_wink.gif border=0 align=middle>
<hr height=1 noshade id=quote></BLOCKQUOTE id=quote></font id=quote><font face='Verdana, Arial, Helvetica' size=2 id=quote> You are babbling moron. First , you condem me for what i USED to do,unwillingly, then you must be blind not to see i did it only to keep up with my loser neibors who made the deer noctural. And finnaly, hunting over a feeder is not the same as hunting over a 200lb pile. The whole reason i bought the feeder was to get the deer back into the mode of feeding during their normal hours.
Baiting with big piles makes the deer nocturnal, they dont have to look for the food, and its always there. A feeder can be programmed to go off in daylite hours to get the deer moving earlier, and it flings the corn so the deer feed a little more natural as if it were acorns and the ground.
And finally, I said i am glad its banned because i never liked it anyway, but i could not talk the rest of the landowners to stop. My choice was to see no deer or join the crowd.
So you dont have acorns, If you read what i typed, i said if you dont have them find what they are eating...... loser
