Well all in all, i love the responses, and this is a BIG topic, but to each thier own, i believe we should be able to bait under careful guidelines, and let it be. we are not doing anything different then farmers but reducing the size of the crop!
You just don't "get it" do ya???? Aren't you in Wisconsin???? The state with the CWD Problem???? Go back and read again, CWD IS CONTAGIOUS, AND IS SPREAD BY CONGREGATING DEER, that's WHY it's ILLEGAL in most of the places it's illegal!!!!

This is neither a for or against reply, because if your State makes it legal who am I to say what's right?

But if we are saying a pile of corn and a confield are the same thing. I'd say these people have never hunted in or around a big cornfield. How many deer can hide in your corn pile? Deer can walk right around you in a cornfield (and will) without ever needing to exit it for "flight" Big cornfields can actually make hunting much tougher, rather than easier.

Have you ever still-hunted a corn field? (thats getting out of your treestand and actually hunting by "walking" ) You can see plenty of deer by walking within the rows. Shooting opportunities...well...it would take the perfect scenerio, imagine putting your target at 20 yards down a corn row see any possible interference? Try walking around your cornpile..see what you see? [:-]

BUT I DONT REALLY BELIEVE IN THE WHOLE "CWD" SCARE, AND THERE ARE PLENTY OF HUNTERS THAT DONT EITHER! MAYBE YOU SHOULD DO SOME RESEARCH AND SEE THAT THIS SO CALLED "KILLER" OF A DISEASE, HAD BEEN AROUND FOR HUNDREDS OF YEARS, AND POPULATIONS HAVE BEEN FINE! THERE HAVE BEEN PLENTY OF TESTS RUN ON ANIMALS AND WHAT TRIGGERS CWD, AND MOST OF THE INFO DOESNT POINT TO THE SPREAD FROM JUST HUNTING OVER A SMALL BAIT PILE!!
I DONT CARE THAT A CORNFIELD IS BIGGER, OR THAT IT CAN HIDE DEER...IM OUT THERE DOING ALL THAT I CAN TO READ, TRACK, SCOUT AND RECORD DEER MOVING IN MY PROPERTY, AND IF I CAN HAVE A VARIABL WORKING ON MY SIDE, THATS COMPLETLY NATURAL, AND SAFE...THEN I GUESS I WOULD LOVE TO TAKE IT!

There's never been a case of CWD documented (or even reported to my knowledge) in NC.....yet we see thousands and thousands of hunters bait every year.

The skyisn't falling, here.

GR8.....a bait pile and a corn field are the same insofar as they are both artificial. Past that....the differences are the size, only (as they relate to being "BAIT").......being utilized as cover notwithstanding.

Didn't the American Indian's show the pilgrims how to plant maze using a fish for fertilizer.
Seems like its been around long enough to not be considered artificial.
