I looked at Jack's posting history and couldnt find a single thread that he actually contributed factual information other than to incite anger and bitterness.I'm beginning to wonder if he's an anti- in disguise.
I'm searching the TAC for recourse to have the moderators tape his mouth shut. Untill then, it's off to the ignore pile.

I think it depends what youre hunting. But for most animals like deer, I think it should not be allowed. There isnt any satisfaction in just setting some food out and waiting for a deer to walk right under you and shoot it. It is so much more satisfying to actually call in an animal or just be patient.

If baiting should be illegal, then so should calls, rattling, decoys, and scents. They're all just meant to lure the deer to where you are - which is a good thing.
