Baiting
i hope they allow us to use bait here in Michigan for the 2009 season. i would of had a lot more action if i could have baited in 2008. any other states not allowed to bait because of chronic wasting disease.

RE: Baiting
No baiting is the first GREAT move Michigan has done now if we could just get the two week gun season moved to three 3 day season out of the rut we might have something going!!! Baiting stinks!!!! Illinois no baiting allowed PERIOD Iowa only out of hunting season and to take trail cam pics and so forth.. Walt

RE: Baiting
i have a very small area i hunt. some time it can be hard to get them under me or even see any. there are many deer in the area just better property that they can move on all around me. now if i could bait i know i would see twice as many. need to give them a reason to walk through the property i hunt. i have many house around me.
here is a little about me. i just got into bow hunting 2 year ago. hunted when i was 16 few times and that is it. i have always shot a bow at targets and what not since i was 8. i finally am in to the sport big time. i love it. i did see many deer 2008, but no luck. i even had 2 deer at 10 yds
. drew back on one at 25. i could not take the shot because i didnt think it would be a good shot. i was so shaky. could not keep steady. plus i didnt have that much faith in the equipment i was hunting with. Now i do
my dad always taught me to practice and practice so u can make the best shot. and if u dont think u have one dont take the shot. i need to teach myself to calm down a little when i get deer under me.
