Take heed, @ksJoe ! As you age, make sure you sit close enough to the pile.

God bless all the little old ladies!

May your corn piles always be tall.

If Karens are the complainers, what do you call the ones that complain about the Karens?

Kind of a long drawn out analogy and it’s been a long week… Are you saying that baiters are trashy? I mean, I wasn’t gonna take it that far, but…

If I don’t see baiting as an option, do you understand why I’m so vocal about it? Stupidly, I guess the option I’ve chosen is to yell at the clouds, as evidenced by my participation in this thread. :)

Get a couple whiskey drinks in any good ol boy and they’ll admit that triple cleaned corn is magic! Every impartial opinion I’ve heard admits it’s no contest.

It feels to me like this is the one topic where consensus advice from wildlife biologists is totally ignored by entire state wildlife commissions. I don’t understand it.

“Evil” wasn’t meant to be literal! That was just a quote that spoke to the harm that can be done by indifference. I’ve tried hard not to bring up morality or ethics in this thread because I don’t even think we need to go there to be support the point that baiting is harmful to the resource. Gun...

I’m going to reiterate that I say these same things to my best friends — so please don’t take this as being disrespectful. There are some on this board I don’t care for, but they’ve stayed out of this thread so far. For you defensive baiters: have some principles. “The only thing necessary for...

I didn’t say anything about food plots and I think they’re a distraction to the more meaningful debate — kinda like abortionists bringing up capital punishment. I respect we likely have different experiences based on geography, but, brother, if corn and acorns were equivalent, why is literally...

First, this is about baiting, not supplemental feeding. Second, speaking of limp-wristed… I’d rather someone argue the virtues of a bright yellow corn pile 4-ft tall than admit they do it begrudgingly. I can’t abide that lack of spine. And I tell my buds that often.

Is this a defense of baiting? Doves and deer? There are no corn fields to manipulate in pine plantations.

Always an interesting topic. In SW MS the recreational land market has been competitive and efficient for 20 years or more. Appreciation has been steady but nothing dramatic, except for some pockets. It’s nothing compared to the appreciation seen in the Midwest. Shocking to me that us...

Honestly…. They should probably just keep their mouth shut. The intro to the podcast sounded like they were ready to really step out on a ledge. They then proceed to state they’re against baiting … but not enough for them to let it to affect their income. That’s a bad look. In the first 5...

I agree. While I have found myself listening to these guys less and less, I didn’t infer from the podcast that they were pro-baiting. Now, I didn’t like that they said they would recommend baiting strategies to clients either. But I don’t think they are quite as culpable as the OP says. Now, I...

Honestly, I’m surprised to see the correlation to wages. Seems like it might actually be tracking what it’s supposed to track.

THIS! With enough years of health and fitness, they, too, can have superior genetics. That’s my point. It’s epigenetics, not some special God-given inherent trait. That’s my point.

I think we’re talking past each other a bit. Are the does’ genetics superior from some inherent unstoppable trait from the Creator or because of the health and fitness of the herd? That was my point. I can see the appeal of these does to deer pens nearly as much as buying genetically engineered...
