Personally, shooting anything over bait is not "hunting". I just want to be CLEAR as glass on the rules because not everyone in our club shares my view. DAM government double talk.
Baiting is not the magic bullet people make it out to be.
I lease 420 acres in Burke County, which is the first county in the Southern zone, we do "bait" but I've only ever seen one shooter buck at a feeder in my life.

Mostly it's going to be younger deer with does, which won't come in until they see the offspring are ok with it.
I do supplemental feed all year, but don't hunt within 500 yards or more from the site.
Got these two last season just cruising from a soybean field going to bedding area.
