[QUOTE="Okie4570, post: 3939299, member: 15643"] I don't think of it in terms of feeders per acre, but as feeders per those particular bucks range. The more feeders you have for bucks to visit within their normal range, the greater the odds they may go to a different feeder than the one your sitting at that particular day. I have two places a mile apart where I dump feed starting in about August. I can only think of a couple of times where I've seen the same bucks on both cams and that was during the rut. There's been a couple of times where I've seen a Hoddy buck and he's seen one of my regulars and those cams are a little over a mile apart. I've never been sitting in one stand and had a buck show up at another at the same time. I'm not a fan of giving them options, I want them to come to one stand every time if possible. That's worked pretty well over the last 25y. I'm in pretty open country, both feed sites are in the edge of timber. About 45 miles away, I've got another actual feeder that's on the edge of a small food plot but not far from the timber. Couple other guys occasionally hunt it also, both have feeders, and it's a random crap shoot on when bucks will show up there at mine, it's anything but consistent. Just happened to be there at the right time this year though lol. [/QUOTE]
