Just what a CO told me he said a lot of people are against it but he says that is one of the new proposals as well as allowing bucks during the youth hunt

I always thought it was odd,you can plant a 100 acre food plot, place stands all over it, shoot deer when they come to feed,but can not put out one bucket of corn.
Buy the way,have heard all the pros and cons.Just a thought.
For the record,Whatever.

Buy the way,have heard all the pros and cons.Just a thought. A "bucket of corn" is a poor man's food plot. From what I ahve read, baiting is over rated... especially if one is after a mature buck. Me too except the disease issue.... |

A 100 acre corn field gives deer ...oh welll why go on. |

I can see where baiting could be useful for Urban Depredation... to help draw the deer out of the fescue & Deer Feeder encrusted McMansion back yards annd into the permitted hunting areas - farther away from the houses...

Not sure I would oppose it but not interested in hunting that way myself. |

Baiting might make doe management easier but could actually make hunting large mature bucks harder.

I think it is over rated anyway. Not going to see a big buck in Indiana where there is plenty of brose, row crops, etc., eating at a deer feeder to harvest. But I don't know how it would make harvesting mature deer harder?

TED NUGENT said it like this.( So whats wrong if I want to spend $1000.00 in bait to fatten up the deer while I wait for that one single deer that Iam allowed by law to kill).
Baiting might be good in the north woods but here in Indiana these deer have a smorgasbord within a short walk. Baiting on public land has proven to be a problem when one hunter sets up on anothers bait. My vote NO BAIT.

The only thing baiting would do in the state of Indiana is increase the chance of possibly spreading any CWD in the herd.

I have been killing deer for years without bait. I am just laughing to myself about a couple of morons sitting around a half bushel of corn dowsed with pancake syrup on opening morning of slug season waiting for a herd of deer to run in and eat breakfast.

No Bait on Public Land. But seriously, when there are plenty of mast crops then there is actually no reason to bait. Call 10 acre food plots what you want. It is still a form of baiting.
