What I've learned from hunting in a heavily baited area, is the people that consistently bait for the entirety of the baiting season, have more kills and pictures of the top of the age structure available in an area. The age structure may suck, but baiting increases encounters on those...

Baiting, even defensive baiting, has the purpose of altering deer movements in order to increase chances of killing them at some point in their lives. Planted food, planted trees that drop fruit, travel corridors, forest stand improvements, and other sorts of habitat manipulations, all serve the...

I just listened to the podcast. The 3 of them each said they'd outlaw baiting and make huge fines if they could wave a magic wand. I don't see how that makes them pro-baiting. You can bait, but also be against baiting.

You can do baiting and habitat work at the same time. In some cases, you almost have to if you want to be in the game. Even in areas with plenty of agriculture, baiting can have an affect on deer movement.

You can't "habitat" your way into keeping deer away from a neighbor who is consistently baiting. If they hunt the bait right, they can outdraw the best of habitat.

I made a huge mistake with USAR earlier. I bought in when it started going back up at 23.37. I was going in to set my stop loss, but hit the place sell order at the ASK price instead. Tough lesson. Missed out on about $2/share profit.

Personally, I couldn't care less about the weapon someone uses. I picked up a bow when I was young to extend my deer season. I just like hunting deer. I'd rather use a rifle more than anything because of the efficiency and effectiveness. I know I can put a deer down without having to worry about...

Thanks, I just started learning this month, and still working out strategies. There's a lot of fluff out there to sift through in learning. I'm up, so there's that. I've been playing it too safe I think.

A little, but half as much as I should have. Got in at 42.72 and out at 43.06. It went to 43.98. I have to learn to loosen up on my stop losses.

I got in to Verizon this morning, but got out way too early. Missed a lot.

If your vehicle has OnStar, even if it is not active and never paid for, they can track it, turn it off, and other things. Look up Stolen Vehicle assistance and Remote Ignition Block.

Enjoyed the video Rusty. I hope you can crank out some more 200's there. I know it's easier to manipulate age structure in the scenario shown, but what (if anything) do you believe Louisiana can do to advance and fill up those age structures through harvest regulations? You would think...

Of course it's fair chase. It's 10.5 hours away from me. It's not even chase.

You manipulate an area to try and artificially attract deer to a particular place on your property, right?

I've been trading in and out of INTC for the past couple weeks since they unveiled their designed/manufactured in the US process. I should have done better than I have, but I'm still learning this day trading thing. I'm up, but not nearly as much as I could have been if I would have been...
