RE: BAITING........
 

You should do it like the real hunters used to, use a club, wear a loin cloth, and ambush them. If you use scents, you're cheating! If you use camoflauge, you're cheating! If you hunt off the ground (still illegal in some states) you're cheating! If you use a firearm or a modern bow, you're cheating! If you use any manmade call to lure them in you're cheating! If you use magnifying optics, you're cheating! If you use dogs (illegal in most states but not all) you're cheating! To each his own

Give me a break. How can a hunter judge another hunter for using legal methods to take an animal is beyond me.:eek:

bait is for fish not deer.

RE: BAITING........
 

Lol. All you holyer than thoughand high and mighty always crack me up. I assume none of you Davy Crockets have ever hunted a food plot, edge of a field, trail leading to feeding grounds, staging areas, oak/apple/persimmon trees, and I assume you all use a self bow and use no camo lures, scents, or anything else to your advantage. What is a natural fruit tree??? Ummmm a bait pile. You better not hunt that. What is a trail, a place you know the deer are traveling on, you cant hunt that. Yall simply crack me up.

Lets get a thread started here as to why all you compound hunters are not hunters. If your bow is made from multiple parts, made of non natural materials, you are not a hunter. If you do no shoot a bow made of one piece of wood and you do not shoot off the knuckle, then you are not a hunter. Ill join in on that. I call that deer killing. A compound doesn't take any real practice to be proficient.Ive hunted with bows for over 25 years. Ive done it in every way possible. I use trad bows (self bows and laminate),compounds, and rifles. I do not limit myself.I ask you mighty hunters, what kind of bow you use? By you posting here, I can only assume you use a compound. Thats funny. You are the real deal, let me tell you. Get out and get you a long bow and shoot off the knuckle, then come back and finish your name calling. Because I choose to use a trad bow90% of the time, that wouldmake me a much better hunter than you compound hunters, or at least by the logic you super studs are spewing. If you really want to get in a pissing contest, come with me on a stalk using noting but long bows and ash shafts. I bet you change your tone.

[/align]How does that feel. Because I use a trad bow most of the time does not give me the right to berate you, I would hope you are man enough to not berate others practice. Or I guess you high and mighty people love to place wedges between us hunters creating a divide the antis love to see. Just keep it up.

I have a feeder on the land I hunt. I don't hunt over it....but I have a stand there in case my son wants to. He hasn't. We supplemental feed to keep a reason for the deer to travel through our 24 acre woodlot.

I'm planting a 1 acre food plot there, next year....and putting the feeder behind the house so that we may watch the deer, there. I'm going to put treestands around that food plot that will ABSOLUTELY draw 3x more deer in.....so that I can be a "real", "non-cheating hunter like some of you. The food plot will ABSOLUTELY make it easier to kill deer in that SAME SPOT. I've never taken a deer over bait. If you think hunting a 1 acre foodplot is "natural" or "fair-Chase".....then I want a hit off that same joint you're smokin', too.

I apologize for being an opinionated NY'er ... can you guys do me a favor and put some nyquil or sleeping pills in the corn or apples? That way you can just wait them out and slit their throats while passed out. All I am saying is the "hunting" methods described here would brand you a poacher and land you in jail without a hunting license for life in NY. It IS possible that your state legislators are poachers that created the baiting rule that has now passed on to state residents for years and years.

RE: BAITING........
 

Lol. come on down to Texas and ill take you on a knife hunt. There are places here you can only use knives for wild boar. If you dont piss your self, you just might realize how ignorant your rant is.
