well yesterday around 4:30 was the first time I ever poured a bag of corn on the ground. It was in an area where I hardly ever see deer though ive hunted it alot. I figuered it would take weeks for a deer to find it, and by then one of the kids could shoot it during gun season. well after making a bunch of racket I climbed a tree. about 30 yards and out of sight of the pile. well within 30 minutes an 8 pointer was wandering all around sniffing, well he leaves to go tell the other deer about the corn and comes back an hour later with a whole herd of deer. so now deer are sniffing around everywhere for the corn pile that was meant for one of my kids to hunt. so I got deer to the left and to the right and center, and all I can think is what would chuck sykes do. so I put an arrow through the closest nursing doe. kindof bittersweet, Iam glad I got the meat, but it was too easy and was the farthest thing from giving a sporting chance. whats next for alabama, 2 week seasons or maybe trapping deer. On the bright side the doe had a lung cancer tumor the size of a baseball, and would probably be dead before long.

I know, I thought I would expirement with it. and found that it pretty much works instantly. Its kindof suddle how I came to this point of shooting a deer by aid of corn. but first chuck said that we need to buy the baiting license as insurance, then Iam buying hay and think about the permit i bought and buy a bag of corn too. then the bag was for the kids and next thing I know Iam shooting a deer by aid of corn with two hours of dumping it.

I open then sling a can of sweet corn as far as I can once I climb a tree and
get settled in.

Most of the time I haven’t got my release on my string before deer are
within 30 yards.

All corn isn’t equal.

He’s fishing. But for arguments sake. No one said u gotta hunt over corn. We won’t be doing it this year and hope we never allow it. If you can’t kill a deer in this state without baiting then it may be time for a new hobby.

I’m more curious of how you found a place to hunt in Limestone county unless I’m reading into your location wrong.

I would have gotten down if it took 2 hours. I have hunted on places where you just leave the bag below your stand and try to climb the ladder before the deer get on the corn.

noway everybit is the truth. Ive refused to bait at all till I put that out yesterday. I didn't feel right doing it. and probably won't do it again (unless I get disabled). but the sport of hunting in alabama, as we have known it, has ended. there is no way the deer population will be anything significant in a few years. when its that easy. but its too late now all the legislatures have bought their corn feeders and can brag about their hunts. way too easy. I wouldn't even call it hunting. absolutely no skill involved. I literally felt nothing from the experience other than a little shame.

Hows it any different than planting a green field and sitting in a fort with a high powered rifle capable of killing something at 500yds?
