[QUOTE="FredRog72, post: 5849891, member: 19496"] I'm on the fence with the whole baiting/non-baiting. I don't buy into the bait escalating CWD since deer are social creatures anyways. I don't for a second agree with the argument about it being destructive to the population. Yes I know it can cause issues, I do get that, but there are far more detrimental factors to the deer and turkey population than moldy corn. I've seen first hand what Yotes can do to even healthy deer. I've also seen what Racoons do to Turkey nests. In my opinion, they are by far harder on the populations than corn. They can wipe out numerous nests in any given area in just a few days. This subject obviously gets differing opinions ruffled in a hurry is what I see. I keep seeing the phrase "learn how to hunt" and I just laugh. Head on up to Kentucky with that thought process. You either "out corn" the neighbor or you watch squirrels run around all day. That's your choice. You hunt where the deer want to be and not where you want them to be. When the "Guide" neighbor dumps out a few hundred pounds of corn and supplements, guess where the deer want to be! Not in my beans and cowpeas! [/QUOTE]
