daddus1---I think there is only one kid that's short are in a knot, LOL! I see you pretty much stated the same as I have on feeders. I would only add one more thing and that is that ther is a slim chance that if the rut is going on during a hunting season a guy might get lucky and have a good buck come in after a doe that is hanging around a feeder. Most of the time if a good one comes in at all it will be druing the night and al you'll get is a trailcam picture. I don't use those either, but they seem to be the rage nowadays.

Aside from all the arguing O.P. I have hunted over bait for years. It works but you will be hard pressed to shoot something to put on a wall. A doe, fawns and little bucks so dumb you can talk to them just before drawing back to put an arrow in their ribs. I've done it. If ya want meat,,, ok. You will be bored of it if you are any kind of hunter looking for a mature buck. The only time it seems to be worth my time is when there is no other bait in the woods ( midweek) and when the weather really starts getting nasty. Like up in northern Wis. when a front comes in, every deer in the woods know where the corn pile are on the weekends because that's when the weekenders are out there putting out bait piles. You will notice deer sightings go to almost nothing on weekends. They will come in for corn 2hrs after sundown, eat off and on all night till just before daylight. Then to sit with a full belly inder the pines, out of the wind and in the sunlight where they can rest. They move very little in the day in this case. When the corn dries up by midweek ( 2 gal. limit in Wisconsin) and you are putting out corn midweek every deer knows you have corn out and they will come like crazy if the weather is ready to get nasty, like a drop in temps, snow storms combined with the rut you will see deer. The older buck will hold off the corn pile till dark every night, even before a storm. You are better offin the long run saving your money and hunting thick trails newr food. We went back to just natural hunting with a bit of Tinks 69 here and there, being mobile, changing stands every day. One thing I can say about bait, you get a lot of time for a nice shot. It is mostly a kids why of hunting though.. Also, we can hunt right over the bait though, you can't.
