RE: cheating
no - I don't feel that way - I appreciate the concern however - and wonder how you came up with your analysis?
Food plots do not mean that the shooting is easier - not at all. In fact in bowhunting - hunting the plot(s) is much less effective then setting up on a good trial - And in Gun season - at least in my area - the plots rarley have deer in them in legal hunting hours.

wally83; if you plant food plots like farmhunter and a lot of others do, you're putting more for into the system than you're taking back by harvesting a few deer. Food plots give you the ability to hunt on your grounds when the deer are acting "natural" rather than being driven like they do around my area during shotgun season.

RE: cheating
you'r really stiring the pot there wally.most as with myslef;if it's legal I do not condem anyone in there hunting method.the anti's have enough to hit us with now without someone from our own group giving them more.
When you accuse a hunter of being a poacher when he is legal in all aspects of his hunt you are hurting us all.you have your opinion as do we all.I am only saying,you may not agree with what others do;as long as they are legal and not hurting you ; please don't condemn them in front of all the none hunters we have out there.JMHO

RE: cheating
Wally, just curious as to your opinion of hunting agriculture fields, sex scents, mock scrapes, all "scent control clothing and sprays", camouflage clothing, tree stands, high power rifles, bows, shotguns and any other non-natural acts of hunting?

RE: cheating
I don't have any problem with it. The deer is just as dead. I hunt feeders frequently, but usually with a camera. I'm not that big of a believer in food plots. There is no substitute for good range management.
