Deer hunters typically, feed deer for about 6 months((August-January) and the turkey hunters feed them another couple of months leading up to turkey season. Texas has been feeding for decades. Texas’ hatches depend more on a wet Spring than anything. So, apparently Texas and our birds aren’t being killed by diseases from feed. And, as we’ve been told for years on this forum, that you can’t kill enough Spring gobblers to effect the population, then what’s the issue with baiting during season?

Outside of feelings and emotions, that is? Whether or not you like how someone may or may not hunt is based on feelings and emotions and not based on facts and biology.
