[QUOTE="TboneD, post: 5858732, member: 15160"] Absolutely. I’ve talked to my cousin in MS many years about it and know why it became legal down there. It was absolutely pure politics. Law enforcement no longer had to worry about investigating all the tips of baiting. And the hunter’s justification was the old excuse: “[B]Everybody’s doing it!”[/B] So now they often do DIRECTLY compete with neighboring hunters in how many feeders they keep filled, which is proven not to be in the best interest of wildlife. And they’ve raised a generation of hunters that know little about hunting besides picking a stand downwind of a feeder that deer have the best likelihood of coming to during legal shooting hours based on what they’ve been seeing on their trail cams.
