    Controlled my coon problem

    With corn being so expensive and coons emptying my feeder after a month, I figured something has to be done. Went to Tractor Supply and got some wire mesh with 1"x1/2" holes. Let's see them try to fit theit little paws through this! Corn still flings out through the holes and I can tell by some of my pics that the coons are pizzed.
    Here's some pics of what I did and my set up.

    Coons trying to figure out how to get into this.

            My trimming day is tomorrow. Got the pole saw ready. I have a good shot on a trail to my right that I have to clean up.

                      Ha ha.
                      I got 1 lone boar that shows up at night. Maybe he'll be brave enough to show himself during shooting light.

                        would it be to hook a battery to that cage?

                          I'm gonna wait a couple more weeks then plant. Hopefully we'll get some rain on it.

                            OK, but if hes still around in January we will have to put the Jaws of Life on him.

                              We'll do. They're showing up here at the house too. Took the four wheeler the other day to check the cows and almost got thrown off when I hit all the rootings. Guess now I'll have to slow down!
