[QUOTE="13pt, post: 5535638, member: 19602"] Had to dig back through my plethora of pictures to find this one. I have very little experience hunting over corn, and only in KY and Texas. This picture was taken several years back on a place in Christian County (one of the hottest trophy buck counties in KY). Me and another guy was the first two to hunt this particular property that bow season, so the deer were completely at ease. As you can see this stand has plenty of cover and up high and in what appears to be in an excellent traffic zone (especially if you could the lay of the land around it). And you can see the corn pile to my left, to which he did use corn on the cob at least. I hunted that spot for two days and seen 65 does (which no doubt many were the same) and NOT one single buck came to that corn; however, I seen several bucks out in that cut agricultural field, but they would just look at the does eating corn and move on. After two days of that crap, I said, how can I hunt the other end of the ag field where I’m seeing all the bucks. He said there’s a stand up on the far end but it’s not baited. I said, for the love of God put me in they stand. The next two days I seen almost as many bucks as does including a heck of a shooter that was just out of bow range! Point is, for those who seem to say hunting over corn is easy and gives an unfair advantage, I call BS. Yeah, if you’re just hunting meat I can see that, but if you’re buck hunting anything older the 1.5, it sure seems to be the least successful of any method you could use. And try to get to your stand, or leave it, without spooking every deer in a 200 yd radius. Now, the guy hunting 200-300 yds from your corn pile, he’s the one that’s gonna get your buck traffic!
