[QUOTE="makeithappen, post: 3008582, member: 24464"] Thanks guys, it's a huge relief. I still have a spot or two I'll hunt on public land as the lease is an hour away and I can get to/from public land a bit quicker when I don't have all day to be gone. As to the lease, even though there are a few more guys on the lease than I'd prefer, it still won't be as bad as public land, provided I'll know who I'm dealing with and everyone is respectful/courteous. We communicate a lot via facebook and have a scoutlook property setup so we can post our stand, feeder and camera locations. That should help in avoiding some of the mentioned issues. I have a feeder with a spinning motor, though I have seen it spook deer off before, so I'm considering a conversion to a gravity feeder type. Having cattle around isn't going to help. For those that have cattle and feeders, how far out do you place hog wire fence to keep the cattle away from the feeder, but allow the deer access to the corn? I was considering using 4' hog wire fencing and t-posts to create a 20' berth on either side of the feeder. [/QUOTE]
