RE: baiting
I really dont care for either one. I prefer hunting over killing, if I was older and couldnt get around as much it might be different. Everyone has their own preferd method of hunting, no one hunts the same and no one person is right over the next.That is what makes us people and hunters and that is why all of us learn from each other.

I know I'm going to make a few mad...but..
I don't see the difference between shooting that buck eating a mouth full of clover and winter greens that I planted...or shooting him with a mouth full of shelled corn.
I can only think of the time and money it would save me by just throwing a pile of corn on the ground 3 days before I go hunting. Compaired to preping the soil and planting and careing for the plots.
But, thats only my 2 cents.
