The feeder I use, is only a piece of 8 inch pvc with a cap,strapped to a tree.
Kinda primitive I know, but it gets the job done, I guess.
Wouldn't be worth anyones time to steal.
I 've been tring to figure a way to secure an automated feeder as well as a trail cam.
My stand is in a place where you can't get an atv.
About 50-60 yards over a steep hill below a huge field.
You have to walk to it... which is a plus. Most people who hunt the area is to lazy to resort to walking.
