I'd honestly rather see it strictly enforced; I feel that it alters the natural biological patterns of the deer to such a degree that it is detrimental to the sport. If it is going to pass, it needs to come a long with a heavy tag price that will substantially benefit state conservation resources, and more stringent harvest limitations/restrictions.

While i disagree with your thought process it honestly doesn't make a hill of beans difference to me if it passes or doesnt. Its not going to affect my hunting.

Corn control is like gun control. It only punishes the honest people.

you reckon all the bubbas tromping through the woods and shooting the deer has any effect?

You lost me when you referred to hunting as a sport. IMHO that's exactly what's wrong with hunting now.

I only hunt for food not sport.

I think it's a fine activity and enjoyable heritage to be shared with the younger generation, but when we start looking at it as a sport,it begins to have connotations of competition,and that's something I detest.

IMHO it's this type attitude which leads to a bunch of Barney Fife's wanting to set regulations to up their chances of winning the big buck contest. You know,the neighbors are luring all my giant bucks onto their property with their corn. We have to set antler restrictions because the neighbors are shooting my bucks before they get a chance to grow to winning proportions. Just that type thing in a nut shell.

Please explain?

Also, not a sport. Most guys in here aren't athletes.

I just want to pet them but they wont hold still.

If you want to hunt over corn, come on down here to Fla and lease you some land. WE been killing deer over corn for 30 years. Ain't nothing to it..

I view hunting as a recreation, not a sport. However, I have made a few wagers in the past during squirrel season. Only head shots counted. It was good natured fun.

I can promise you that the guys hunting around my property dang sure do not want it passed and legalized. They are 100% against it I can assure you. It's the only way they kill deer.
They've hunted over it, illegally, for years around me. The day it is legal to bait and have it out on your property, without having to worry, their deer sightings and kills will be cut in half, at least, when I strategically place 4 or 5 big feeders out on my property. More land, better fields, drastically less pressure, stricter shooting requirements...the only thing deer could want on my property that they dont currently have is a big fat supplemental feed pile. Which for the past 7-10 years they've been having to go next door to get.

I dont care one way or the other. If it's legal, I'll have something out to hold my deer as much as possible. If it stays like it is, I'll just keep doing what I've been doing.

I couldn't care less energy way..

Yes your alone! Most people have been using corn and bait in some form or fashion for years!! Not going to change a thing the deer are educated very quickly to it and the big deer avoid it! Worked at Academy for four yrs and we sold pallets of corn!! Somebody is baiting and have been for years!

I don't see it as a sport or recreational I do it for the peace and quite and the meat if I kill a good un that's a plus. Also i could see baiting as to giving someone to look at a deer a little longer to make up their mind if that's the deer they want to shoot. Also may give a kid extra time to calm down before he shoots. May give someone who only has a few acres that enjoys hunting to kill a deer.If used properly it could be a tool for some people. To each is his own.

Hmmmm well u don't think a greenfield alter deers patterns?

You're not alone

I'm not pro baiting....

Doesn’t matter either way to me but it is always an entertaining debate to watch. If it’s legalized it will not be the end all to killing big bucks and if it’s legalized it will not be the end of deer hunting.
