RE: Baiting vs. Planting Deer Feed - what's The Difference?
Yes this was a worthwhile debate.;)Just don`t shoot that deer in that 60 acre food plot, oh wait go and shoot it b/c it`s better than baiting.:eek:

RE: Baiting vs. Planting Deer Feed - what's The Difference?
As I said stretch...I guess the biologist, and now that you metion it...the whole DEC dept, really don't know much about these whitetails.
To think that they would seesome difference between hunting over a 2,650,000 sq ft food plot, and hunting over a 100 sq ft bait pile really leaves me dumbfounded as to their stupidity.... Anyone can plainly see how the two situations are nearly identical! What differencecould there be inshooting over one food plot that is 3 yds long, or another one that is 580 yds long? Heck 580 yds is a chip shot with my bow and a real piece of cake with my shotguns/muzzleloaders. I must admit though, I did miss once with my rifle at that distance....but hey...rifles aren't even legal where I hunt so that is no big deal, I'll just stick to those chip shots with the bow.. All in good fun....JC |
RE: Baiting vs. Planting Deer Feed - what's The Difference?
I don't find baiting any diffrent than useing scents other than it would be easier to take a deer over a scent mark than food.Would it be illegal to use apple scent to mask your odor or a natural apple cut in 4s and placed in your pocket a couple days before the hunt season?I don't see how it could be any diffrent.In reality your odds wouldn't go up that much on public land.The deer won't move the same when people come into their enviroment.I don't see why 1 would use bait on private property.The deer are allways going to be there withouth the pressure of hunters on opening day and maybe a few extra deer that you haven't seen before that was pushed off public hunting land.Planting deer food is not baiting.It is to increase the antler growth and health of deer.Now to hunt apublic dump for bear would that be considered baiting or natural resource?As far as I know there is not a law on useing stinky old fish for fertilizer for your 10 by 10garden or it was illegal to put apples in your composs bin on your property.

All in good fun....JC You been taking bow leasons from NY Bowhunter? Don`t worry JC I`m looking for more land so i can plant 60 acres or more So I won`t be considered a baiter. Plus when I fish this spring no dam worms on my hook just some clover, I heard it`s better for the fish. :DI really don`t think this thread will ever be settled. If 'Baiting" is legal in your area then do what you like. If "baiting" is illegal then plant food plots. I really don`t care how anyone does it as long as you get out there and hunt. Feel free and enjoy the outdoors. |

Baiting or Luring: Taking game on lands or waters upon which corn, wheat, grain, food or other substances have been deposited by means other than normal agricultural harvesting or planting is prohibited, except as noted below. In addition to normal agricultural harvesting or planting, mourning and whitewinged doves may be hunted over agricultural crops that have been harvested or manipulated and over natural vegetation that has been manipulated. • Resident game, other than turkeys, may be hunted in proximity of year round game-feeding stations, provided that feeding stations were established at least six months prior to taking resident game. • Turkeys may not be taken by baiting or over baited areas; or when the hunter is within 100 yards of a game-feeding station. |
