[QUOTE="Bull_TN, post: 5854024, member: 19688"] I was just trying to point out the hypocrisy of us all fussing over whether it's ethical, moral, legal, hell Biblical according to a few post for us to put out corn for about a quarter of the year. Like I originally said, baiting IS legal in TN most of the year (pile corn), and you can hunt 100 feet from a bait pile legally in TN as long as the pile is on your non-hunting neighbors land. I just can't take the conversation seriously in it's current form. It seems to me like we've allowed so many legal options to bait that we might as well get on with taking off the few remaining restrictions. Everything in politics is a give and take. I would give the open baiting to take the requirements that all bait must be spread. In my humble opinion, we would be in a better spot and keep TWRA from policing nonsense. FYI, I heard a story of a TWRA officer kicking a guys disabled and 99.9% empty feeder and a few pieces of corn fell out and he got a ticket. The guy had taken out the battery and scooped out all the corn he could get to (intent was in the right place). This all seems like nonsense to me. I think all these kinds of conversations and laws are at the core of hunter recruitment going down every year. [/QUOTE]
