[QUOTE="TheLBLman, post: 5064780, member: 1409"] I'd bet you are correct, and we both know laws are typically only as good as their enforcement. It's just too easy for someone in one of these counties to kill a turkey over a corn pile behind their house, then tele-check it into another county as a "legal" kill. Also, shooting turkeys over corn or other bait piles has been illegal since Day One, yet it wouldn't surprise me if 20% of the birds killed "statewide" on opening weekend are in fact killed over a corn or bait pile (then tele-checked & bragged about on Facebook, etc., or in Sunday School Class). If we could somehow enforce the baiting laws, much of the other "concerns" (like decoys, etc.) might no longer be such "issues"? [/QUOTE]
