I honestly dont see the difference between:

hunting where you know they bed

hunting around acorns

throwing corn and hunting it

All three are using your brain as a human to hunt where you know the deer will be, and the deer is too stupid to realize you will be there

One is based on 100% human manipulation and the other involve knowledge of what the animal naturally does.

I don’t begrudge someone legally hunting over bait I simply get much more satisfaction from scouting and the chess game.

I think there is a huge difference in what is involved between shooting an animal over a corn pile versus finding and sneaking into a bedding area undetected and killing one.

Going out and finding where the deer are feeding or making scrapes setting up to play the wind and kill a mature buck is my goal. That Is way different than setting UP a box blind on a pipe line and putting 3 deer feeders out. Feeding protein or corn year round.

I dont care how people hunt I just don’t find satisfaction in hunting a deer feeder with a rifle.

natural movement vs manipulating them to come to you

people can hunt however they want, but I find the "box stand over looking a feeder in a lane" style of hunting to be excruciatingly boring, although I generally find gun hunting in general to be boring

now I definitely understand its appeal when young kids are involved
