Once again, 100 yards and out of sight DOES NOT maker corn legal to hunt over. If you put corn out in order to attract game, it is baiting and as of today, baiting is still illegal. All the 100 yards and out of sight decree did is put another element of the crime a GW has to prove, i.e. he has to show beyond a reasonable doubt that the deer you were hunting were attracted to the corn. This is why I am so adamant that it should be legal or illegal, period, No stipulations to keep confusing people.


You sir are 100% correct. I've said the same thing til I was blue in the face on here and everyone says, no if it's 100 yds and out of sight it's legal. According to the law, if it is influencing deer movement to make them easier for you to kill, it is considered baiting and is still illegal in AL whether it is 100 - 200 - or 300 yards away. It should either be legal to have supplemental feed/bait out during the season or it should not. Black and white. No middle ground. I personally dont care either way. If it is illegal, then the fines need to be astronomical and the GWs need to enforce the hell out of it. If it is legal, they can spend all that extra time chasing night hunters and poachers.
