I don't hunt, but my family does. I just eat it! I heard the deer down South are so small they're barely worth shooting at. Maybe that's just TX.

Geez,
In the south and you do not hunt must be damned Yankees.
I used to hunt when I was in Indian Springs GA and based at Bragg, also we hunt in Trinidad but the deer are not big but they sure do eat nice :-}, also iguana, possum, tapia.

Father-in-law's 128 acres.....That pic was 75yds from my front door.... Yea I got deer all over.. And I cant even sneak my brother in.. He is very funny about hunting.. But I take the time to prepare the land and do all the up keeping so I get to hunt.... Ive got some great area's set up... I cant wait . My feeder operates 30 min before sunset and the deer know it and start coming in there about that time...... I was checking it the other day and watched one coming to the feeder... felt wierd sneaking AWAY from the deer.. In 2 weeks I will be sneaking UP to them...

I also don't think feeders are as popular in the North; at least not in the group that my family hunts with. It's always been sit in a stand freezing your ass off for hours waiting to see what wanders past your sights, or push through the woods trying to shake them out.

No its not..........I feed the deer a little all the time..But more in winter months cause farmers around here plant alot of tobacco and cotton and a little peanuts and corn so I have to help the animals out.. And I wont shoot a spike or a 4 pt...I wait til 8pt and above......

Feeding is not cheating. Your getting them the right nutrients to them so when you kill them its better eating.
We can bow hunt right now in North Georgia. And muzzle season is this weekend. I only rifle hunt. Cant wait. Going to Alabama to hunt at a friends property. 8000 acres and camper and tree stands already set up. Thats not until November.
My first kill was a doe and shot it from about 50 yards and I used an Ak-47. No scope just iron sights. It only ran 25 feet before dropping.

Last year was my first season hunting. Had no luck whatso ever though. Hopefully that changes this year.
