So will businesses be required to stop selling deer feed/corn in CWD ban areas?

I know right. Was legal to sell across MS for years, even though it was illegal to hunt over it at the time.

Why wouldn't they put a ban in a 50 mile radius of where they found it and see how it plays out?

Also, in Ms couldn't you still bait with corn it just had to come from a feeder and not in a pile?

Not a chance in hell. One reason why a ban will actually hurt a lot of hunters because a large contingent will right on continue to bait.

I know they damn well still where I hunt.

Folks who sell corn would fight tooth and nail. I stopped at a hardware store in Columbia last week and overheard the owner tell a customer they sold 21,000 bags of corn last year.

Is this possible?

I had a buck I killed in Mississippi that I wanted to mount. Being a rookie at removing the skull cap while preserving the entire head skin, I spent 2 hours trying to get the skull cap off without f-Ing it up beyond repair. I eventually gave up because it was obvious I didn’t have the right tools to do it right. Still pisses me off every time I walk by the rack on my wall knowing I should have a beautiful mount attached to those horns.

I’ve come up with a plan to do it right next time but as fate would have it there hasn’t been a next time yet.

Also heard a story of a kid’s trophy buck being confiscated and incinerated because he crossed state lines with it.

I get it’s the law right now but why not allow it to be tested and returned to the hunter?

Snitches get stitches

Ok how about this one? They burn your camp down. They frick with your stands so you fall out. They pour salt all over your food plots. I mean the list goes on and on.

If the department wants to get serious about controlling baiting, all they need to do is fly the area.

The ban in 2018 was when CWD was found across the river. Big difference with it being found in Tensas Parish this time. I don’t expect feeding to be legal next fall.
Like you, I assume they’ll shoot a bunch at night in the coming days and get an idea about what they’re dealing with. Heard it was an 8 yr old buck that had it.
