Actually, there's no need for a property line restriction. That matter has already been settled:

The imposition of a low-level standard of mental culpability also protects a hunter who performed the necessary investigation, but was unable to detect the presence of bait, perhaps because he was barred by a property line. ...

Not really picking a bone ... just wondering why you would add more restrictions in order to enforce a law that should never have been passed to begin with.

It should be repealed so we could be done with all this confusion, don't you think? How does this law benefit the public in any form?

I reckon it will be clarified, but I didn't see the words "bait pile" in the wording. All I saw was "feeder".

Hadn't been keeping up with the whole thing... just saw a problem when someone said "just make a 500 yard rule and be done with it." Have been in a county before with an eager game warden before who would probably ignore the property line idea unless it was mentioned in the restriction. JMO

This thread is way too technical for me. I'm going to go back to being a regular deer hunter. I'll check back later to see if you guys work this thing out.

If you plan to hunt, the best thing you can do to stay out of trouble is to either learn the volumes of laws and rules or have a lawyer hunting with you.

so make it illegal to put a feeder out with in x amount of yards of your property line (besides who puts feeder's on property lines?...defeats the purpose) Go with 200 yds...100 yds is simply legalizing without legalizing... [/quote]

Agree - go with a 200 yard restriction. Absolutely.

Agree. And every GW I've spoken with thinks it's a joke.
Just like the stupid honor system for the 3 buck limit.


100 yards IS a joke. A big fat *!@%^& joke. That
is LEGALIZED baiting as anyone is capable of tactically
using "out of sight" corn at 101 or even 300 yards.

Who the heck came up with this garbage? And I mean
names and addresses of all involved.

I agree, the law is garbage. thumbup

The garbage part was likely added when the original statute was last amended in 1991.

The sponsor's name was Haynes, but it don't give his address. He called it "Animal Protection". It don't say what animal rights group he represented though.

Acts 1991, No. 91-591, p. 1093, §1

The governor who signed the amendment was a republican, Guy Hunt. He doesn't have an address now, he died. (Lieutenant Governor Jim Folsom, Jr. became governor upon conviction of Guy Hunt for ethics violations) Ain't that a bitch?

Maybe this whole mess will be put in the garbage soon by our legislature. That's where it belongs.

Quit worrying about the baiting and completely legalize it. Then the GW's can be more concerned with dangerous activities (e.g. hunting at night).

On the bright side, this will prevent SOME people from baiting and shooting out their back doors.
Maybe.

this law sucks and so did the old law, BUT previously area could have reasonably been interpreted by a fair GW or a law abiding hunter as far more than 100 yds away from a feeder. In other words in the past I doubt a hunter who honestly tried to follow all hunting regs. and ONLY continued to feed during hunting season for feeding purposes would have ever considered hunting 100 yds away from a feeder. So now, area has been defined as being much smaller than most would have thought and is small enough that bait can now fairly easily assist a hunter in killing a deer. If the real purpose was to define area in a way that would allow clubs and landowners to feed year around without having to worry about whether or not they were breaking the law then they would have defined area as much greater than a distance of 100 yds.

So you are saying that most folks normally only follow the laws that they agree with?



I would have to agree with this statement when it comes to hunting over bait. The convenience store down the street from my house sells 2 tons of corn each week during hunting season.


By that logic we should just legalize drugs, moonshine, gambling, prostitution,
speeding, running red lights, driving drunk etc.


I was not advocating making anything legal . I said ,I agree people follow laws they agree with , and used hunting over bait as an example.

I do not care if it is legal or not it will not change the way I hunt .


none of us follow all laws to the T but a lot of us try. To say people in general only follow laws they agree with is stepping way out. I don't agree with our current tax laws but I still pay them...thats just one of many laws I follow but don't agree with. What about those that hunt in South Bama that haven't been able to hunt a real rut...you think most of them just go ahead and shoot deer in February? I just don't get your logic...

Ahhh.. You are one who always obeys the legal hunting hours?
