RE: feeders
I much prefer broadcast feeders to from a tube/where all the deer feed from 1 or 2 openings.....
If you're fairly handy, you can buy the broadcast spread part, and attach it to your own grain bin, ie a garbage can, or a 55 gallon drum, then hang it from a stout branch or on some legs, rather than buying a 100-150 feeder I think you can get the spreader motor etc....for maybe 30 bucks, and you'd have a great set up, just cut a hold int he bottom of the bin to feed to the spinner/motor and spread away! can always order a replacement setup from one of the pre made's if you can't find just a spreader.
