Baiting is legal where I hunt.

I just purchased 80 acres with Federal Land on 2 sides. I'd like to put a 1/2 dozen or so feeders on the property. Does anyone have ideas?

yea, find some 30 gallon drums and order the kits from cabelas to make the feeders.

Free choice feeder. Take a 5 gallon bucket with lid, cut a 1 inch tall by 3 inch wide hole in the side at the bottom of the bucket. Affix (screw) a 1x12 board to the bottom of the bucket so that the board sticks out about 10 inches from the hole forming a shelf. Trim the edges of your shelf with quarter round trim or 1x2. Suspend the bucket from a stout tree limb so that the feeder shelf is about 38 to 42 inches from the ground. I WIRE a pulley wheel to the tree limb and thread the rope thru the pulley wheel to make the lifting process easy. I use wire (about 18-24 inches from limb) because critters chew the rope.

Here's one made from a pickel barrel with a screw on top. I bought a feed spinner for $32.99 and had a top made for it. I holds 300# of corn. http://www.advanceddesignsinc.com/images/Feeder.jpg

CHECK OUT www.ncdeerman.com I BOUGHT I SPINPRO FEEDER OFF EBAY FROM THIS GUY AND MADE MY OWN FEEDER WITH A 55 GALLON DRUM AND IT WORKS GREAT. LOL

Buy a bunch of 4" PVC, some 45 elbows and some end caps. Strap them to a tree, and if you make each one about 5-6" long, you can make a whole lot of feeders for $100.

If you want more capacity, go to 5", and use a reducer on the end so the feed doesn't spill out so fast.
