[QUOTE="deerchaser007, post: 4172903, member: 1783"] This is great post. Strategy to kill the mature bucks is key. With any strategy to kill mature bucks, you have to hold mature bucks to that property. If a large landowner in TN is running multiple feeders to hold deer on that property, that Is baiting. That is where the TN baiting law is twisted IMO. Giving some hunters the advantage over other hunters, that cannot run the same concept of holding the mature bucks. And, if said property is holding most of the does during the rut cause of the bait, its still baiting. That buck will follow! The other thing that concerns me the most is that some want to throw out the disease aspect associated with bait.And I am one of them. The risk don't over ride the need for success. But, just because you can't hunt within that 250 yard radius of that feeder does not mean the risk is not there for disease. So, its obvious by this law written as it stands, they are not worried about disease, its more about what someone views as ethical under the defined baiting. No matter how you look at it, its bait, and its being used to manipulate the deer and other animals free range. [/QUOTE]
