I can't believe anyone would ask that question in public. If you have to put out corn in the preseason to help your odds, then you must not be that good of a hunter. No offense but I am totally against putting out corn, wheat etc. before or during turkey season. That's just my thoughts though.

I believe you can...........but it has to be gone 10 days before the season starts, or the gw will bust you big time.

Then what your saying is that its not alright to do anything for any animals.....like plant clover, or sunflowers or anything that they eat...If your not against that type of feeding why are you singling out turkey feeding....I just am courious is all.

sounds like a supertalk topic a few weeks ago.
If some animals are good at hunting and others are suitable for hunting, then the Gods must clearly smile on hunting.

Tunica, the keyword is planting food; not just throwing corn out and concentrating turkeys into one spot.

Corn

Postby noles97 » Wed Feb 23, 2005 11:57 am

deredwine,

What is wrong with putting out corn as long as it is gone before the legally required 10 days? This makes no sense to me at all. If someone wants to do something and it is within the boundries of the law than why would you attack him for it? I think that he is asking a perfectly legitimate question. If you don't like the way he hunts then don't go hunting with him! He isn't doing anything wrong or unethical by supplemental feeding prior to season so lay off him. You also need to consider that it is not just the gobbler that he may or may not shoot that will benifit from his efforts. Hens, Jakes, Deer and others will eat the corn that he puts out too, so it is not all bad.

As I stated: That's just my thoughts. I think feeding in the preseason shows weak hunting skills; but again: That's just my thoughts.... :D

This has always puzzled me. Why is planting not baiting? You plant something for the sole purpose of the wildlife and then hunt over it. It's done with almost all hunting, including waterfowl. Millet is planted as food for ducks, never attempted to be harvested, and then hunted over. It all is baiting to some degree so why prosecute the lazy guy who just skips the planting and throughs out food. I know what the law is and yes I follow it and plant food plots and hunt over them. My problem is with the law itself. It all just seems hypocritical. O.K. I'm off my soapbox, sorry for the interuption.
