    Feeder Times in South Texas

    I have all 7 feeders going off at 7 am and 5 pm. Mornings tend to have more activity than afternoons and cameras showing a lot of feeding from 8 pm until 2 am. Just wondering what times you guys have your feeders set to go off. I just put 6500 pounds of corn out today and my old butt is worn out.

        We don't use timed corn feeders on our ranch. Took them off four years ago and haven't missed them other than having better deer movement using vehicle feeders. With the vehicle feeders the deer have to compete to get some corn. By dark all the corn is usually gone.

          Does someone feed every day twice a day?

                In Atascosa County and thats pretty much our schedule and results on movement. When the rut starts or in full swing the evenings get better activity

                  No. sometimes it's two weeks between feedings. They still come for it.

                      My FIL used to pull a hopper trailer through the ranch about every 3 days. The deer would come out behind us and start eating as we were driving. He had a diesel pickup that he used to pull the trailer and when we would drive around in his pickup without the trailer deer would come out looking for corn.

                              too much hunting pressure, your deer have gone nocturnal.
