[QUOTE="Putz ND, post: 321593, member: 1031"] Heavily biased - we’ve had the opportunity to be part of 18 first time bow kills in the last 4 years and everyone of those harvests came over some form of bait. Alfalfa plots, sainfoin plots, molasses pellets, corn kernels - gasp - on the ground even .... The youngest huntress was 9 and the oldest was in her late 40’s. This fall I hope to get my 8 year old an opportunity. I like to think that these experiences have broadened the base of sportsmen and women and have brought more people into the sport. Growing our numbers by providing opportunities is what we should be worried about. That’s it. If baiting was killing the herd, I’d stop instantly. In the area where I currently hunt, we’ve altered the carrying capacity of the habitat by so much through our supplemental feeding, that we’d need the help of 50-60 additional tags per section of ground to avoid complete starvation of the herd. It would be awful to pull the plug on these critters “cold turkey”. The game and fish is clueless on these moves. [/QUOTE]
