In principle I oppose it because I simply don't think we need to make killing a deer easier in Alabama, I would rather see them make it straight up legal with no stipulations than continuing to make it confusing as to whether it is legal or not or use it as a source of revenue.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

I hope that one day they will clear up the law in AL one way or the other. While I own some land back in AL, I don’t own enough for a corn pile to make a difference. I mostly hunt public land where it’s still illegal to bait in the states that allow it on private land. Doesn’t really matter to me but it feels like this debate has been going on forever. A corn pile shouldn’t be this big of a deal.

You're not alone. I think baiting is just another symptom of the millennial disease.
The lust for instant gratification and the justification for laziness.
I'd be in favor of capital punishment for baiting.
I hate making a good first impression. There’s no way I can keep that shit up.

I'm hoping that if everyone else is baiting, I won't and deer will flock to my sanctuary.
Lord, please help us get our nation straightened out.

Iand more stringent harvest limitations/restrictions. Please explain? Also, not a sport. Most guys in here aren't athletes. Big difference between a sport and an athletic sport. Didn'y say hunters were athletes...golf is a sport by general classification, also not an athletic sport IMO, but that's all conjecture. By "sport", my connotation meant something that challenges one's craft while maintaining fundamental rules and operating procedures. Something can be an ethical "sport", i.e. enjoy the hunt, eat what you kill, and strive to improve and maintain the environment.
"I have but one passion in my life, Mr. Rainsford, and it is the hunt. The world is made up of two classes - the hunters and the huntees."

I'm not a fan of it, for reasons laid out in another thread.
I've quickly learned there are some folks who seem to equate disagreement with using corn/baiting to an insult directed toward their mother.

Not alone. I’m opposed to baiting and supplemental feeding. I’ll even go along with no food plots.

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. That's my thinking on it once it's legal it ain't gonna work no more because there's gonna be a corn pile in front of every stand. Gonna be just like hunting a greenfield is now.

I'd be in favor of capital punishment for baiting. I remember guys picking corn and putting it in the woods using it for bait in the 70s so, I don't think its just a young bucks game.

Since it has been legalized in GA, we have killed far bigger bucks. Why: because we were able to compete with the local outlaws.

If you need corn piles to kill deer or turkeys then that's just sad 😂
I definitely think more of deer/turkeys killed by real hunters than those killed by baiters. If you are going to bait deer or turkeys then at least do it with food plots instead which provides better nutrition.
