RE: baiting
ORIGINAL: GregH ORIGINAL: burniegoeasily What about micro food plots that are so popular? Ive seen a guy berate baiting, yet sets on miniture clover plots that allow him a shot at any point of entrance. What about Decoys? Not much sport there. What about doe in heat urine? Not much sport there. Shoot, why a compound bow? if you want a challange, get you a self bow. Or better yet, make you a bow and go kill your deer with it. I do it, its much more difficult. So I guess I am allowed to berate everyone on this board.  Here is a bamboo backed Osage bow I built this year and shot most of my deer with this season.  And a few hogs Or how about a yew recurve I built several years ago.  Both hogs and the doe were shot during a still hunt. So i guess i can be an elitest. All of you who buy your bows, hunt from a tree, or use scents or Decoy are unethical and I simply loath you.:eek: Oh the Irony just makes me laugh. Some of you guys really need to enjoy what you do and not get bent out of shape at what other do. But then agian, hunters wont quit hateing each other until we kill the whole sport. Everyone knows that a true elitist doesn't use aluminum arrows with (gasp!) METAL broad heads!! They don't live in houses constructed with man made materials either! They use wood arrows, stone broad heads and live in huts constructed out of animal skins which were sewn together with sinew and porcupine quill, or maybe stones and mud. You're busted! [8D] Besides that, you've been out of the loop on the Bow hunting forum for too long........Just this week (earlier) we all got through this elitism crisis by deciding that to be a good hunter you must be proficient with your weapon of choice. This includes, guns (all kinds), bows (all kinds), spears, knives, catapults and bare hands. Therefore, it is a given that ALL of us are proficient with any weapon that we choose to use because we are all good hunters. We also decided that it's really all about the hunt, not the weapon. Come join us! ;) |

ORIGINAL: cooter144 ORIGINAL: LittleChief ORIGINAL: HuntinGUS Call me crazy but, isn't it all of our intentions to kill deer when we hunt? [&:]. No kidding...people continue to comment without reading the original post and then it gets out of hand. To re-cap, my response was in response to a post that questioned the difference between a cut corn field and a pile of corn - whether or not they both qualified as baiting. My short reply: The hunter who hunts over a cut corn field is NOT baiting, because he had no INTENT to bait. He was using the field to his advantage to kill deer. The hunter who purposefully sets out a pile of corn is baiting. It was his INTENT to bait. In both instances, they intend to kill deer. One hunter baits, the other doesn't. Rocket science. |

RE: baiting
There are good bait hunters and poor bait hunters. |
RE: baiting
If you think corn is an indigenous crop....then I can see why you think a corn pile is baiting (although it would equate to putting out acorns, really). If you agree it isn't (and that they're BOTH "artificial")....I can't see the difference...other than the size of the pile.
No argument, here.....just stuck on what's artificial and what isn't. We don't want others second-guessing our means and methods of taking game.....but it's seemingly "OK" to question another hunter's legal methods for doing just that? Interesting. |

ORIGINAL: LittleChief It's nothing new, Cooter. It's the same old song-and-dance. Some folks just aren't happy unless they're arguing. That's a big part of why I have an ex-wife.[8D] From my view, people are extremely sensitive. |

RE: baiting
I agree, BC. We had a thread on animal respect that exemplified that, just yesterday.
