I was set up on a feeder yesterday...the 1 deer i saw looked at the feeder and took a different path away from the feeder. I don't think its going to change the game a whole lot, especially in wide open food plots. They are mostly going to hit the feeders at night I think.
To GOD be All the glory!!!

The numbers are not meant to make sense.....They're simply just to give the powers that be something they can use to bullchit the board with when they want to make changes. "Hey we want to change this.....finagle some numbers from GC to back it up"......The board has to have some kind of numbers or "data" in order to make changes and this is a way to get them. Did it increase because of baiting or did it increase because of hunter compliance?.....Which one do you need to be when we go to the board? That's how it will work.

I doubt it will affect the number. Not by much anyway. Nope, because the majority of goobers already been baiting anyway.

the number of deer killed this year will be much higher than in years past directly caused by baiting. The seed store near me is selling twice the amount of corn as this time last year, and stilll running out. The processor near me had twice the number of deer brought in the first week as last year. The numbers don't lie, more deer are being killed.
A lot of folks haven't been baiting that are now, and those that were baiting are doubling down on amount of bait now.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

A lot of folks haven't been baiting that are now, and those that were baiting are doubling down on amount of bait now. And yet, they wonder why people lose interest in hunting. I've just about give up deer hunting because of all the morons and marketing gimmicks.

With absolutely NOTHING to base it on I was GUESSING an increase in numbers reported by 10%-15%. That would be in the neighborhood of 10,000-15,000 deer. But how will we know it's baiting instead of a good season for Alabama hunters? Will it be claimed an increase in reporting even though the 3 previous years were fairly consistent?. What good are these 4 data points if this 4th one is from a different set of rules? We won't , could be hunters hunted more . Could be a few things that aid the corn factor or hurt it . Corn , good hunting weather , number of hunter hours up = high numbers of deer killed. They sold this as a management tool and it simple is not . All that money wasted and pain for the hunters .

Gamecheck......................what a useless crock of chit and waste of people’s time.
If I agreed with you, we'd both be wrong.
