Best bait
 
I was just wondering what your thoughts were on the best bait to use for deer or turkeys.

Have you ever tried peanut butter ? It makes a good lick. You can put a big glob of it in the foot of a womans stocking and hang it from a tree. Deer like it .

For deer, I had more luck with apples than anything else.

I scoff. You wanna feed'em or fool'em? Not that I wouldn't hunt over a food source, just not gonna serve it up to them.

It's illegal to hunt over bait in PA. However, many people bait an area that they want to take trail cam photos of just for the pictures.

To hunt them, why else? If it's perfectly legal why gripe about what we do in another state, unless you're just jelouse? Part of being a ethical hunter is following state regs, and here in NC, the regs say it's legal. Someone made this post just to get people riled up and it looks like that's what is going to happen.

Devilfish,
Here's one that used to bow hunt. Surgery on my left shoulder for tendons and torn muscles resulting in my inability to pull my compound. I now use ML and rifle. Things just don't return to normal when you're over 70.

First off Iam not gripeing about anything, I asked a simple question, If you can bait legelly go for it. Secondly, Why would I be jelouse? Iam very happy with the hunting I have here,....
