Not corn piles. I broadcast over an acre in front and a half acre in back. Minerals are chunked and spread also. Does the rabbits good too that way. (I got that little trick from the State biologist.) Their nice folks. You had ought call them too for your land. They were very helpful with my goals. From songbirds and turtles to deer and bear. They helped me make better habitat for them all.You missed the part about feeders and mineral sites which has been the target of my clowning.
There was nothing in your link that describes how cwd is approached. This thread is about corn feeders. You said you put corn out and mineral sites. You stated you’re all about a healthy herd. Is the QDMA teaching you to put corn out for a reason?
Time to study those corn pile stud bucks. Seasons coming.
Maryland has done that for years now, a couple of cases of CW and "Boom" no more baiting in that county until its resolved.Yes, EHD is Bad. But CWD is Worse | National Deer Association

There’s a link from the NDA(formerly QDMA).
Didn’t know they upsized, thanks Greg.
Some clowns want to help sustain a healthy herd but are still throwing out corn and minerals. The #1 action we as hunters can do to slow CWD is to quit the community feed sites. But yet here we are still feeding the pets. Some people don’t know any better but some clowns know the real truth but ignore it.
Some clowns are just confused on what they want. Big antlers will do that to you.
Same in Michigan. On again off again on again...Maryland has done that for years now, a couple of cases of CW and "Boom" no more baiting in that county until its resolved.

Gee Mr. Obvious. I just didn’t see the pattern…Same in Michigan. On again off again on again...
Only Deer corn regular corn is safe….Oh God! Maryland is doomed! Has anyone told them they're about to lose their entire whitetail population?!?! The damage is done!!!!!!!!
Man I wish corn was never invented, then there wouldn't be any disease in whitetail populations. Now that it's here, and in spite of record whitetail populations as a direct result of its presence, I think we should ban it. Corn probably kills more deer than God.
We don’t have to worry about that here. Because we have the deer association members spending big dollars to build a better tomorrow. Thanks for saving the animals! If it wasn’t for you…Oh God! Maryland is doomed! Has anyone told them they're about to lose their entire whitetail population?!?! The damage is done!!!!!!!!

CWD has been known in the western US since at least the late 60's and is far more prevalent in states that don't allow baiting than those that do. It is only recently, after it was discovered how effective the CWD "crisis" could be for pushing agendas, that it became a panic. It certainly doesn't help that wildlife professionals have so frequently responded with knee-jerk and inconsistent measures intended more for CYA than reducing the spread of CWD.Then it’s too late. The disease moved in done damage before a decision to stop feeding is made.
Yeah let’s just wait until it shows up and hits a few counties worth of deer population and THEN say, ok everyone quit feeding for awhile. Surly we are smarter than that.
Nope. We want to ignore the evidence so we can hold deer closer to our side of the land.
Screw the CWD, I need camera pics of my bucks.
