Anyone build feeders like this? $11 each costs

[J-J Matt]

We use something kinda like that on our quail feeders.

[Reaper]

haven't tried it, good idea for the cost though

YepGYro. Eyebolt in the tree and cable through feeder to hang from. I can say I never saw a buck over 2.5 years eat out of it.

Work great, but make sure your bottom cap has holes for the moisture to get out.

I made some small ones a while back..........painted it battleship gray trying to protect it from UV. They have drain grates in the bottom to handle any moisture that might get in them. Made two and don't recall what I spent on them.

Found one of these in the woods behind my Dad's house some years back. Mighty handy. Think I'll rig me up one. I like the camo idea Bobby.

work great. i had one wired to a tpost one year and a young buck decided he liked it better at an angle. he whooped on it pretty good.

I had one with 6" pvc (held a lot of corn and easier for the deer to eat out of. And I had a couple with 4" pvc. Like said above....drill a bunch of holes in the bottom so the rain water can drain out.

I have two of them. But a big boar tore one off the tree. I used zip ties to fasten to the tree. This time I will use metal clamps. Only problem is if you have coons they will empty it in a day or two.

The hogs really love em.. I hate a pig

I've got two that I made with the y's. Work great for feeding the birds, the coons, well you get the idea.

[BuckAssassin]

mine was really more of a squirrel feeder (not intentionally). they can get to em and get away SO easy.

Thats all my dad and uncles used to do, I still use a couple in areas I don't want to spook with an electric feeder

[flufster]

when i was a kid we used the one shaped like a "L" and we had a giant coon that would sit on it like a recliner and would reach down on the cut out and pull out a handful of corn and look straight at us while he ate it...he would sit for hours in his lazy-boy snacking on handfulls of corn without moving.....dad thought it was funny to watch so he never let us kids put a bullet in him

this brought back some great memories of our first deer lease

[Eric4x4]

Good idea and cheap

[TX kyleboy]

think I'll try a couple. Thx
