I was just wondering if anyone had any tips on using a deer feeder. I bought one last night that shoots the feed out in a straight line about 5' wide and 30' long. It mounts to a tree. Any tips would be appreciated! Thanks!

Set it to go off an hour after your in your stand

RE: Feeder Advice

Meat is right, set it to go off about daylight and about an hour or so before dark. I'll be honest, you probably won't draw in the big bucks. Contrary to what alot of people say, hunting over a feeder doesn't usually make hunting easy. It all depends on what part of the country you are in and what your surroundings are like. Your best bet is to draw in the does. Then hopefully during the rut the bucks will follow the does by your feeder. Good Luck!
