So SB 123 would apply to all game, not just deer or hogs? If you don't buy a permit, could you still just "feed" by pouring out on the ground and being a 100 yds away and out of sight?

I agree the felony charge seems a little much for a first offense, but I'm good with the fines.
The permitted feeder thing is stupid. Make baiting either legal or illegal.

116 is horseshit, felony charge for killing a deer?? Hail no.
feeder bill is even worse, plain greed in action
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

them be some mighty stiff fines . class c felon to boot . Where does it say you can hunt over the feeder? I missed that somehow.... And yes a felony for a first time offence is too harsh. I had a new member years GO take his son to a shooting house that was not ours (without knowing that) and he killed a spike out of it! He was caught and warned. He later attended West Point. He could have never gotten in West Point if he had been convicted of a felony for that. Ridiculous!!

For SB 113 - Also think it is funny (odd, not ha-ha) that the restitution is paid to the State and nothing for the landowner. I guess this is because the State owns the wildlife? The civil forfeiture clause should be of some concern too.

50 bucks for a feeder? WTF??? Just goes to show that with Government, it's all about the money. Wanting permits for feeders is nothing new. I know I guy that's been voicing his opinion on this issue for years. He's basically been saying make "baiting" legal and issue permits for feeders.
How many people am i willing to sacrifice for freedom? Everyone. All of them...
Do not regret growing older, it's a privilege denied to many!

I would like to remind y'all that Tom Whatley isn't exactly the hunters best friend. He was the primary opponent of the reauthorization of Forever Wild.
Both bills are awful and hopefully they won't make it out of committee. In addition to the problem of the creation of a new felony offense, SB 116 would require the Court to place a monetary value on wildlife for the purposes of restitution. This is in contradiction to the North American model of conservation wherein wildlife has intrinsic value and is owned collectively by people and managed by the State for the peoples benefit. If we are going to start placing a monetary value on every game animal, we might as well reduce them all to livestock to be bought and sold. I'm not real crazy about Forever Wild, either. As far as putting value on game animals, that ship sailed a long time ago. Allowing the fencing in of game animals started that slippery slope.
83% of all statistics are made up.

As far as putting value on game animals, that ship sailed a long time ago. Allowing the fencing in of game animals started that slippery slope. But there has never been a legislative value placed on a game animal. This would require the Court determine the value of a deer or a turkey in order to assess restitution. That's a horrible idea. There would be no consistency across the state unless the Department of Conservation passed a regulation establishing a value, which sets an awful precedent. I'm a hunter and I would place an extremely high value on a game animal whereas another judge who doesn't hunt or understand wildlife may only make a nominal valuation. The issue about high fence animals is different because for all intents and purposes they are treated like livestock by the high fence owners regardless of whether they are viewed as such by the state. I have several friends in Lowndes County who own or operate high fences and they can place a monetary value on each animal. We don't need to extend that already flawed system to free range game.
