[QUOTE="TboneD, post: 5858553, member: 15160"] This thread has been more than a little revealing. I knew folks deer hunted for different reasons, with some much more interested in the hunt than the kill. Maybe there’s not as many of us like that as I thought. Since I have family in MS I’ve thought a lot about it and had many a conversation concerning it for some time now. The one that keeps coming back to me is the one I’ve had with myself, though about what if they make it legal in TN. Will I quit hunting? No but I’ll probably quit buying the sportsman license and hold off to see what the acorn crop is looking like for that particular year. Anyhow, if all you got out of this thread was the drama and you missed the reasons why baiting isn’t good for deer hunting, the deer, or wildlife in general, you have the internet at your fingers. The fact that politicians are the ones behind it speaks volumes. We ought to be raising the bar when it comes to the welfare of wildlife, hunting ethics and sportsmanship, not lowering it, especially when most folks don’t “get” us hunters to begin with. [/QUOTE]
