You know I am not sure how I feel about this. I also hunt in ga. I hunt in Monoroe county. The deer are plentiful and we are seeing more deer kils on the hwys than in the woods it seems. You are right. I do not need nore have the room for 12 deer and then my husband hunts and my dad, who gives us his deer. If we met the quoata, that would be alot of deer. I usually only kill 4.
My dad got ticketed last year for hunting over corn. Well it was in line of sight and only about 100 yards away. 300.00 ticket. I for one, do nto want to hunt over bait, to me that takes all the fun out of it. Sure youget down when you have been out 4 or 5 days with out seeing anything, but what fun is it, if you know that they are gonna come cause of bait.
One of the thrills for me is sitting in the woods and no sounds at all, then all of sudden I look up and there is a deer there. Great feeling.
But DNR will do what they want.

Yeah it is a good area to hunt. I hate hunting near the landfil though, noisy. And they keep dogs there and they bark way to much.
I figured there had to be a Monroe Cnty, somewhere esle, I forgot to put GA int here...lol

RE: Georgia bait debate
HECK I LIVE IN NORTH ALABAMA WHERE WE CAN TAKE A DEER OF EITHER SEX EVERYDAY ... I WISH ALABAMA WOULD ALLOW FEEDERS BUT NOT SURE THAT WILL EVER HAPPEN ..ALTHOUGH I DID NOT THINK THEY WOULD EVER MAKE CROSSBOWS LEGAL EITHER BUT THEY DID .... I AM NOT SURE WITH ALL THE ACORNS WE HAVE THIS YEAR A FEEDER WOULD HELP MUCH DURING THE FIRST TWO MONTHS ... ITS EXTREAMLY HARD TO PATTERN THEM RIGHT NOW ...
