I voted Yes, I do believe there's a difference but only in a technical way so I could have answered yes or no really.
I think food plots are safer food sources for deer to eat from,, however from a hunting viewpoint, they both serve the same purpose and that is to lure Deer into a "killing zone".
I personally find it hard to accept that this is called hunting but I also have to say If it's a legal option where hunters want to use bait or food plots then I say more power to them and best of luck to them As long as they're hunting within the laws of the areas they hunt in, that's all that should matter.
I also agree with huntingman on, if a deciding vote was based on one versus the other I'll always vote for the harvest that occured away from the bait source.
