pretty good topic.

My opinion is that Game Cameras offer more of an edge than Baiting, but that's just splitting hairs.

The truth of the matter is that we all make personal choices to use what aids we feel are necessary to meet our personal definition of success. That can be Bait, optics, centerfire rifle,  treestands, compounds, scents, trail cameras et all. and we will justify our position because it fits for us.

I think regardless of your neighbors hunting decisions, it's really best not to judge.

First they came for the hound hunters,
and I didn't speak out because I was not a hound hunter...
Then they came for the baiters,
and I didn't speak out because I didn't hunt over bait...
Then they came for the bow hunters,
and I didn't speak out because I was not a bow hunter...
Then they came for me,
and there was no one left to speak for me...
I am free only because thousands of brave Americans have given their lives for me...

:yeah:

we all have ways we like to hunt and what we consider hunting and hunters need to quit arguing over what method they think constitutes as hunting and stick together to quit having our rights lost 1 by 1

I don't condone anyone from baiting at all.  I have personally never hunted over bait and may not until I can't t hunt without it. I don't consider hunting over an alfalfa field a farmer planted to harvest baiting either nor orchards  but food plots are baiting to me if they r specifically planted for hunting deer.  Just not my prefered method.  I may get to the point where it may be necessary to do so as well as using ATVs.  Now there is another topic! Just my  :twocents:

How can you not condone a hunting method that you have never tried?
