bait

actually hunting over or near a corn filed is baitng.i am not now nor have i ever been a trophy hunter.i am a meat hunter.i am 3/4 cherokee and the outdoors means the most to me.any time a animal is harvested we all gather and give thanks to the animals for sacrificing his life to put food on our table.
the misconception about corn or bait is that animals come from every where.that is false. it does not always work.the corn feeders are hit at nite and the deer are seldom seen.the area i hunt now is very hard to hunt.the bucks always have ugly looking racks due to poor nutrition.many deer are found after starving to death.we put corn and nutrients out thru the year.does this assure us a kill. nope.it keeps the deer healthier so the numbers will stay up.people draw a conclusion by what they see on tv.in the real world it is nothing like that.sure i use a cover sent. after 3 or 4 days in the woods you will smell.hogs have a great sense of smell.their eyesight is not as bad as some think.some areas of texas you could stalk for miles and never see a deer.that does not mean there are no deer.i have a buddy who comes down every march for a hog hunt.he could not believe they were so hard to hunt. he tried to stalk but his smell kept them out of range and in the swamps.
i meant no disrespect to you either. just some think they are better than others and like to toot their own horn
