What will be the charge for hunting over bait without a permit, old hunting with aid of bait or no permit?

What if one is 100 yds away and out of sight? That law still apply? Won't need a permit for that .

Will there a situation where the old hunting with aid of bait applies?

Here we go again, I see another cluster in the making.

And you don't think this was already happening? Were those giant pallets of corn at walmart that magically appear during deer season being fed to the birds? I don't hunt over corn and likely still won't (mostly because I don't think it works), but I would rather they legalize it than keep it illegal and act like they can control it.

Corn is actually about to get really cheap if we put a tariff on Mexican imports and Mexico responds with a tariff on American corn or they start buying most of their corn from South America. Mexico is by far the largest foreign buyer of American corn.

2Dogs, I have those questions also. No telling how many more confusing things we haven't thought about.

If it was enforced they could control it. They simply have not enforced the baiting law for several years. Not entirely the GWs fault either. Judges didn't want to be bothered with it and threw out many cases. Probably because they, or their family, are masterbaiters as well.

You are 110 percent correct! We give our rights away.

Had a conversation about this subject with My dad. His reply was "people will do anything for a buck". Thought it was funny because he is talking about both sides and 2 different types of Bucks lol

Ummmmm. No

257, what do you know about corn? Are you a farmer or something?

Care to explain? Mexico buys 27% of America's corn exports. If (and it is certainly still an "if") Mexico tries to respond to an American tariff by buying their corn elsewhere, corn will absolutely get cheaper here in the US due to the lower demand for it.

The US does not have a global footprint in corn. Mexico may be the largest buyer but even at 27% that's very little volume being that the US cannot be competitive in the global market. Nobody can compete with South America on corn. They can produce 2 corn crops a year in most places. The US actually imports corn from South America because it can actually be bought and imported cheaper than it can be bought in the US. Corn prices aren't going much lower than they currently are at the moment. The strength of the USD and the Brazilian Real play a little role in who gets the business but given the current exchange rate the US will not gain any more demand. The US sells some small tenders of corn but it would take a catostrophic event in Brazil and Argentina for the export volume to amount to anything. Corn prices are steady to bullish especially with the reduction of acres this year

I hope your property gets surrounded by corn piles, moron.

He thinks that hunting over corn is a lazy way to hunt, a point of view that I happen to also share, and he does want it out close to the property lines which can cause a rift between he and his neighbor, and that makes him a moron? Please explain.

Think somebody misunderstood Wm.

Nobody really cares what you and him think. If you don't like baiting then simply don't do it if it passes. Don't resort to pissing on somebody else's way of hunting by calling it gay and lazy. That makes you a moron in my book. Many ways of hunting could be deemed lazy other than a $5 corn pile.

I have to agree with this. I go to a lot of properties and see how a lot of folks hunt and its silly to be bashing each other. To each his own. If you want to go cut down a tree and carve out your own bow that you use to shoot your own hand made arrows with hand knapped arrow heads…….then by all means have at it. But if another guy wants to sit in a small condo and use a rifle, then he isn’t necessarily less of a hunter because you don’t want to do it that way. We need to be far more concerned with hunter participation than bashing someone for not adhering to your own personal preferences.

I love TN

There's nothing wrong with being ignorant but you can overcome it. I'm sure its tough looking in the mirror and finding a shameful face of lost integrity staring back at you. But stay positive, work hard and keep focused. You can eventually cast off the shame. Just let me be your mentor and keep telling yourself, "I can do better". Outback will guide you to the light.

Exhibit A ^^^^^^ what a piece of crap
