Anybody Have a Deer Protein Pellet They Recommend Throwing from a Timed Spin Feeder?

Have been told numerous times that if you are not feeding free choice you are just wasting your money spinning protein looking for improvements on your mature deer...

Yep!

Clogged all of mine up good last year as well....might consider a filtered gravity feed approach with pvc and grate at the end to cap off.

i was also thinking this because, what if you had lets say just doe s that came into that area at the certain time you have it throwing? well they come and eat everything leaving nothing for your bucks and thats what u are wanting to grow?...I might be thinking crazy

Thanks for all of the advice. I have seen Antler Max in my area so am glad to hear the results with it have been positive. I might give that a try.

I also agree that feeding it from a spin feeder might be a waste from a deer growth standpoint - but at the same time I like knowing there is a variety of feed coming out of my feeder - versus the hunters around me.

I've been throwing close to a 50/50 mix of corn and Record rack for the last few years and haven't had a clog. Not to grow big bucks but just to add another flavor and price difference isn't like it used to be.
But we have very few deer and I have the healthiest coons, possums and skunks you've ever seen...

Check the feed bin for any small holes/leaks, lower the spinner plate, and you should be alright. I mix antlermax with our corn in December and January and have not had any problems so far.
