I am buying 50 lb bags of 20% protein deer feed for $13.50 a bag. Been using this feed for three years. We have 24 feeders. This price is about the best per lb that I have found for high protein deer feed. Where are you finding that at?

Spin feeders usually deer take longer to get use to - the humming nose wigs bucks out - i hav gravity but hav stopped my summer feeding and plan to eventually switch some spots to spin to save $$$
I hav had 6-7 year old deer hit my gravity - not sure they do that on spin n daylight. When i hunted other states where corn was legal for years - resident hunters said u almost had to raise a buck on a spin. I agree. W that said - deer act diff in different areas but i think they can acclimate to gravity faster - never had trough - if i did i would hav strong trap program for coon
Hunt the wind - leave it better than you found it - love your neighbor as you love your self We need prayer for our country now more than ever

Mine is10' L x3' W. About 30" off the ground. I fill it w/ 200lb Corn 150lb Triple Grip (Roasted Soy bean, peanuts, corn) 150lb of 16 point protein pellets 200lb of Deer Draw. 700 lbs fills it up level. It last 2 weeks. There will not be a cornel, pellet, etc in it after 2 wks. They absolutely love that mixture. Cost about $400/mo to keep them fed. I have some coons but they don't just camp out in it. I move mine around with my pallet forks.

You can google search 55 gallon drum single post feeder. I made one of those but haven't begin to feed out of it yet. I plan to start this weekend. Very easy to build and install and easy on the budget
Its not the will to win but the will to prepare to win!

It’s interesting I found this. I built a trough out of scrap wood and filled it with corn. The deer will not touch it. Any of y’all deal with a time period for the deer to get use to them? For the most part it took mine a couple weeks to get used to it. I spread corn on the ground around it then started putting it in them and then they started to take to it. I did have one place though after two months they never touched it so I ran it over with the tractor and bushhog.
