i still can't believe they let you bait deer to begin with!
Hello, new to siteI've never been a baiter but don't discourage it, D.N.R says baitpiles congragate deer in which they will come nose to nose , and their saliva is left on said bait for the next deer to come in contact with. Now I'm 41 yrs old been hunting since I was 12 shooting since I could hold a gun,been in the woods my entire life. I have seen deer come nose to nose when they meet in the woods, smelling eachother like dogs,And what about licking branches? Ears of corn that more than one deer eat off? I could go on and on, but my point is whats the difference between all the natural things deer do, and a bait pile? sorry for the length but it could have been longer
First I'll say, each to their own, I wouldn't try to stop anyone from legally hunting over bait. But doesn't it take the hunting out of hunting? I can go two weeks or more without seeing a deer, and I'm fine with that it makes the ones I get that much more gratifying.
