Nope, I don't bait. I think here is VA you can bait up until September or so but definitely not during the seasons. I don't need to bait to kill an animal and thats not a bash to anyone who decides to do so.

To answer the question: I did once- for my first bow it was still a tough hunt for me regardless. No I dont anymore. If it was legal in Virginia, I still wouldnt do it.

Bruce....Interesting discussion......but I'd ask if the HUNTER'S "intent" had any influence on your definitions? Why is HE hunting the ag crops?
Under the strictest definiton of "baiting", (IMO), Bob.......I'm not sure there is one. I'm OK with that.

Jeff, define a situation in which a deer IS NOT baited under your scrutiny.

I would rather floss my neighbors cats teeth, than hunt over bait.

Perhaps the only thing that comes to mind is an unweened fawn?

Baiting isn't legal in most of the state, but is where I hunt.
Yes, I hunt baited deer.

No discussion required on the legality/morality of the practice.

No. I don't do it.

. Same reason I hunt the trails that lead to oak ridges or a staging area, etc. Because that is where the deer are/will be. But, just because that is where they are/will be still doesn't make the ag/oak/rub tree bait. It just makes it where they will be.What is the purpose of bait?
What is the purpose of ag crops?
