Usally have this in a field thought I'd try it in the swamp. Man was it hard to get everything in including 180lbs of corn. Did it today and had a blast with my dad. Cops seen my van by the road and came in to make sure we weren't growing pot. Man where they sweating.lol Five deer shot out of this tree in last 2 years. Feeder is 20 yards from the tree. Stand faces north.Have a prodominate west wind. Deer bed to the north and east.  |

Yep me and a guy I hunt with made this one last year. Works really good never plugs or falls over. 4" pipe for the drop and sheet metal for the tray. Legs are 1" stainles steel. Legs have wood blocks under them to keep it from sinking as it's really swampy area. If on dry ground blocks are not required.

That looks pretty cool .
How is the feed dispensed ? Is there a timer and motor that isn't visible ?

No motor just gravity. Corn comes down on to feed tray till backs up the pipe. Two bags of corn lasts about 2-3 weeks.
