Signed the lease today! Land owner took me into his home and showed me some of the deer he's killed on the property over the years Did he take those kids in the pictures free-range of were they baited?

Can’t see the most recent pics for some reason. Have followed your threads in the past years
Good luck with the new place
Pretty sure deer eating bait are still free range unless they are inside a fence they can’t jump out of.
Not legal here in Tennessee either thank god, but if it’s legal and someone chooses to do it in their state I support that.

Sorry
should have specified in that post. Some guys Above asked if those bucks the landowner had shot were free range or baited. I was laughing at the poor wording of a deer not being free range if baited.
Don’t want to hijack your thread
Today I can see the pics. Sounds like your season is stacking up to hopefully go welll!!

I didn’t take it to be your style. I just find it odd that they asked if they were free range or baited. As in a baited deer was not free range. Must be a regional way of saying it I guess.

I got out for my first sit yesterday afternoon as a cold front came through and temps dropped from low 70's to upper 50's in a couple hours. I hunted the new lease and saw nothing. I was climbing down to leave and just as I getting to bottom of the ladder climbing down my phone started vibrating...The camera straight across from me was sending pictures less than 100 yds away,this deer was walking right towards me!

Saw a 120" this morning. Good enough for me and my recurve. Found 4 scrapes in the dry creekbed, he and a couple others popped out 80 yards down. Moved a stand, get in early and hope to zip him tomorrow.
