If so do you keep the spin times the same or do you reduce it so the deer eat more protein? I turned my corn off when the season ended and now don't see as many deer even thought I have protein. The deer I do have are always looking at the corn feeder first and then move to protein or just leave. So this past weekend I turned the corn back on but have it spinning for 2 seconds in the morning and evening and 1 second at 1200. My thought is if they get a little bit of corn then they may move over to the protein looking for more. I also reseeded my pens with Biologic.

Originally posted by BURTONboy View PostWe spin 4-5 seconds during season and 2 seconds during off season. If it's a really green off season and they aren't hitting the feeders much, we cut them back to 1 second. Just to let them know there is food year around for them.
