Feeders have been legal here for years. If you don't feed and your neighbors do you won't see many deer. It is just where hunting is going. You can sit and listen to the neighbors shoot the deer you want or you can compete.
Or you can ban feeding deer. It is illegal to feed deer where I hunt. Supposedly it is about the spread of disease but it might be to stop poachers too. If you get caught hunting over bait in Pennsylvania* or Vermont, you get fine and your license suspended.
*A few urban/suburban areas in PA with limited hunter access allow baiting. Otherwise, the deer would stay inaccessible and the population would not be able to be controlled.
