Good grief,all this uproar.Again,why do I use feeders? Because there isn't a wheat field,alfafa field or soybean field within lord knows how many miles from where I hunt. So what do I do,quit enjoying the great outdoors because I'm "baiting"? Is the feeder a tool for commercial style slaughter on a wholesale basis? Not in my case. In fact,this year I didn't even kill a deer even though I had numerous bucks follow does to my "artificial" food plot;they were just not what I was looking for. Different regions and locales require varied hunting techniques;get over it and express love for the sport we love-deer hunting. Kix
