Where I hunt you are not exposed to a feeder right in front of you. That's just wrong in my opinion. There is a feeder near the camp where you can sit and watch the deer come out and eat but that is just for the enjoyment of seeing the deer. The camp is approximately 2,500 acres and takes a lot of time to maintain and keep it going and a year round job. I look forward to hunting with my friend/mentor at the famous Christmas Place Plantation and Hunting Club on the edge of the MS Delta, about an hour and 15 minutes from Vicksburg. Rex has the blog, Deer Camp Blog, and I believe you are familiar with it.

They are merely shooters. I would never allow this on my property.

Yes, I agree with you on the feeders bringing in the hogs for an easy bacon shot. I'm still eating on my 180 lb hog that I shot back in January. Nothing like the REAL thing off the hoof! Wishing you a great hunting season my friend! :)Marian Ann Lovehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09189162059138923328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37314802.post-64974770941435316412015-08-21T22:09:29.335-05:002015-08-21T22:09:29.335-05:00I don't think baiting works well in our part o...I don't think baiting works well in our part of the country. The deer mostly go nocturnal. It works well in Texas because it's usually so dry and the deer are left with little or no browse. Deer like a diverse diet and will eat at the feeders, but it's not going to get the deer running to the feeder when it goes off, they will be running to the sound of dropping acorns. A good side effect may be that the feeders bring in the hogs for an easy bacon shot. Bubba Ledbetterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12765410121861407599noreply@blogger.com
