To sit somewhere and type up something saying , basically I am not good at hunting because I bait the deer and or it's an unfair advantage is just internet sour grapes bla bla bla for sure and or a closet PETA thing.
Our deer roam far and wide and to be very sure it isn't like we are out there raising deer to "slaughter" anyway , if you follow my posts you might notice we follow a VERY strict one deer a year off our place rule ,and last year we didn't even harvest one btw ,and in the end it is really about this ......
MY kids and grandkids and wife get very little enjoyment out of just looking at trees. We family hunt our place most of the time and the kids really love to sit with us and watch the animals ,
By all means carry on though , I find it really interesting to see how folks really think and or like to engage in banter about what is not fair in the pursuit of fish and game , very much in line with those that use LS / FFS and call it fair to chase a large fish down as it tries to get away from them ,until it makes the mistake of biting a bait put in front of it that might even be a live minnow ....what is "fair" chase these days is a really grey area my friends , just saying
p.s. my widest rack buck at 22 inches wide on my walls came off a deer trail by a creek at 27 feet away , no feeder required

Well said Ketchn - I appreciate your explanation. There are many others who don't think like you and I when it comes to sportsmanship and fair game. We're on the same page. Enjoyed the banter on this topic. Thanks.

It’s all good with me , my path is not easily blocked , it is a chosen thing and rarely if ever redirected by others opinions on my travels and the direction of said travels.
Not that good advice isn’t absorbed, but most of the time I am not easily distracted
