[QUOTE="megalomaniac, post: 5852186, member: 2805"] 19 pages later... And I could still care less about baiting for deer. If we could harm the population of deer by baiting, they would now be extinct in MS (after bait was legalized 6 or 7 years ago). It's universal down here. It just isn't that big of a deal when it comes to deer. Same gimmick as when I started hunting as a 12yo and I had to put red fox pee on my boots on the walk in so deer couldn't smell my tracks. Baiting is just a gimmick. Those that buy into it will kill a buck once in a while and swear it was because of the cornpile. While savvy hunters will kill 2 good bucks a year away from the bait. Sure, baiting may work if you are the only one doing it in 5 Sq miles... but once it's legalized, there will be a baitpile every 50 acres.... and the magic disappears. The illegal baiters need to be pushing hard to keep it illegal... as it gives them a slight advantage. But those pushing for legalizing baiting who currently hunt legally are just in for a pile of $$$$ wasted. Again, I don't give a rats ass about baiting for deer. Just another gimmick/crutch which isn't really effective. I'm just opposed to legalizing it for deer because it opens the door for legalizing it for turkeys... yugo, turn me loose with a baitpile and I guarantee you I could kill every tom in a square mile... its just that easy to wipe out turkeys with bait.
