Is putting a corn pile in front of your deer stand really ethical hunting? I think not!!!!!!!! But to each his own

I like to put the corn pile BEHIND my stand and I mostly scatter the corn rather than put in a pile so that it's more like a "food plot in front of a stand"

yeah, its natural to find a big scattered area of corn in the middle of the woods!!! I guess the indians should of came up with that idea, then they might not be so over populated. I prefer to scout and find the deer instead of putting something out that gives me an unfair advantage. Old school son, old school...........

If you care so much about how the indians did it maybe you should put down your gun, build your own bow from a sapling, make you own arrows and harvest your deer. Instead of something that gives you an unfair advantage.

Old school....yea right! You probably shoot mechanical broadheads, wear scentblocker, and play on your cell phone while hunting

For you information, I NEVER deer hunt with a gun just for that reason and I Do use a recurve with no sights. Taking a deer with a gun is like taking your sister to prom!!!! Anybody can do it......

In wisconsin it's illegal to bait deer, a very stupid law. After deer season has passed, I provide my deer with deer food supplements along with high quality baled hay. All the corn in the world is useless if they don't have the roughage in there stomach to digest it.

I scatter all my corn on the ground. I don't use timed feeders because the hogs will hang around it too much and run all the deer off.
