I think that hunting over corn is the least of worries for some parts of Alabama. The decrease in deer numbers should be a much higher priority for the DCNR. When the state gave every yahoo with a gun the opportunity to kill a deer every single day of deer season, having a game warden enforce corn laws became a mute point.
I don't really care if it's legal or not, the only worry I have is that some of the white collar weekend warriors, and blood thirsty old school hunters that just want to shoot something, are going to have an easier way to do it now. Yup..

This is what I think. There are so many bigger problems than feeding corn to worry about. How about a real tag system on bucks instead of just an honor system? How about limiting the number of does killed or going to doe days? Those are 2 common sense things that need addressed instead of feeding corn.

Too many folks think is this the silver bullet. Pour out some corn and that Booner is gonna run you over to get to it. Supplemental feeding/baiting/whatever you want to call it will not make up for hunting pressure, poor habitat, and the likes. I'm of the camp either make it 100% legal or 100% illegal. No distance, sightline restriction crap. Couldn't have said it better myself.

When the state gave every yahoo with a gun the opportunity to kill a deer every single day of deer season, It worked well since we had shorter doe days and limits, the vast majority of hunters chose voluntarily to control themselves in regard to bucks, and no one gave two chits about trying to control other people and how or what they hunted.

Again, seems like folks are missing the point on this subject as well. Never saw anywhere where anyone complained about the LEGISLATURE making game laws. You guys want a bunch of political lawyers making game laws. Its bad enough with the appointees with the CAB. Think that the DCNR was set up (with a biologist at the head) to advise the CAB on good vs bad laws!

Are you saying it was better when we had doe days or it is better now?

Does anyone know when the vote will happen?
His neck is red as Alabama clay
Now he's goin' home this time to stay
Where the roots run deep on the family tree
And the tractor rolls through the fields of green

IF this bill gets through both committees to the House and Senate floors then it MIGHT get voted on if they decide to do so before the Session ends. And then the governor would have to sign it into law, or he could not sign it and let it die on his desk like other bills.
Nothing's a given other than it being a political football.

So long to the old fashion way of getting out there and busting your tail scouting and finding deer the right way and learning to hunt, there won't even be any need to buy tree stands any more just get you a lawn chair and sit in some bushes just any where you choose and put some corn out and wait, I think its gonna take the sport out of it and will ruin everything we've been taught about hunting ethically back when we were kids,it will definitely take the hunting out of it, a lot of kids will never learn the value of hunting and respect it by hunting over a pile of corn So you're saying kids learn the value of hunting by crawling up in a heated shooting house watching a food plot? I'm not trying to argue, just trying to understand your thoughts. Somebody worked to build that shooting house and plant that plot. My teenage son has always helped us in those endeavors and understands that there is work that goes into hunting. I hope he never, ever thinks that pouring out a bag of corn and sitting on it the next day is the way to hunt. Good grief. I've heard it all now.

I have been told by a very prominent individual associated with the House that there is no way this bill ever see a vote, and he stressed EVER.
