[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5849446, member: 2805"] I agree with this... there has been so much baiting for years, while the legal term of 'influences game movement' was so vague when it comes to successfully convicting baiters... So thereby came a more precise definition of '250 yards away from bait' came into effect in the courts to successfully convict baiters. So... basically, you can legally run a feeder to 'feed' wildlife, and are perfectly legal to hunt 250y away from the feeder as long as you don't shoot into the 250y radius of the feeder. You may get ticketed, but you can prob beat it in court. So... we have basically 'halfway' legalized baiting in TN already under the guise of 'feeding' wildlife. I'd prefer we just make all 'feeding' of wildlife illegal (except for bird feeders and hummingbird feeders in backyards) over making any and all baiting legal. But the current regulations of '250 yards away' from a baitpile is just too gray. [/QUOTE]
