Who puts feeders out after the season?

What do you feed them?

I been thinking about a mix of corn and alfalfa cubes mixed with some kind of deer feed, if I can find any around here. But I would have to make a tube like feeder.

If I get a good Christmas bonus I may buy a good feeder, but dont know what lind yet.

I will be putting this by my shed cause I have deer tracks in my driveway and shed in some big oaks. All planted pines and brush thickets all around the other properties surrounding me. Had three does in the yard when I came home tonight and about ten dang rabbits running every where!

We used 50 gallon plastic trash cans with hole cut in side at bottom. They work good - try to put sheet of plywood underneath to keep corn off ground. We used mostly corn. You can also get 8" to 15" drain pipe, cut hole at side and tie to a tree or pole. try to get ones with plastic cap or something else to cover top. Last club we were in made wood troughs with roofs.

Corn mixed with whole soybeans will work and provide some needed nourishment. Unless you have a place the processed feed will stay dry, it will get wet and mold.
