I have had a feeder with corn surrounded by 6 16 foot hog panels 3 foot tall out for about a month. Still no deer at it, what would y’all suggest I should do.
you have no Deer or your not seeing them.... they have no problem with those panels. and it takes some time to get the deer on a pattern.
Take down a panel or two to let the deer get use to coming into the feeder. One they’re use to it put one panel up, then later on the other.
Then take me to your place and hunt it, then I’ll tell ya more secret tips-n-tricks!!

Take down fence and feeder and plant grass for cows.
You save money! (And time!)
Cows eat and will share grass with deer!
Win win!
Ps;
Add some clover to the grass mix planting.
Not sure of your location but in most places the deer probably have a ton of forage growing on the ground to worry about visiting a feeder. With the hot weather lately they may be laying low during the day and coming out more at night. Also, give it time. If October starts rolling around and youre not seeing deer then you may have a "concern". We have a ton of deer on our property all Fall and winter. I'm seeing deer now but only a couple per week out in our pastures and its only been at night. Haven't seen a day time deer in many months.
I know this is a very old thread but I am more curious how you get 1500+ cattle on 80 acres. Am I reading that correctly?
It's a feedlot. That many cows on 80 acres you will have to feed them every thing they get.
