Something to think about, the AO idol, Cody who kills monster donkeys does this with-out the use of bait, obviously because the Mule deer is not similar in habits as the whitetail.. So Cody does bait for whitetails but his success rate is actually poor in comparision to his mule deer accomplishments.. What does this tell our community ? Cody is an amazing sportsmen with a passion for all species, but continues to struggle with the jumpers year after year, employing the same techniques as these part time others who get it done year after year

If "baiting" was the ticket, well I am pretty certain Mr. Robins would be show casing many a 200 inch purdy deer as opposed to the giants with big ears...
Agreed with everything you said, but dont think for a minute that their is not a bunch of guys on this forum that don't have the skills nor the passion to hunt just as hard as these guys do...but without the attractant it adds a whole new perspective to the hunt and i seriously doubt without it half the deer they killed would have been killed! In fact i would challenge them to drop the bait pile for a year and try it! That being said i do have a tremendous amout of respect for these guys and i love the show...
