[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 785203, member: 5412"] Thats the problem with gravity feeders. Every critter in the woods comes and feeds off of them. If you buy a programable feeder you can make it throw only in the morning about 30 minutes before legal shooting time, and it will condition them to come to the feeder, and be comfortable while eating the corn when the sun comes up. That being said, in 20+ years of using feeders, I've never killed a mature buck off of a feeder. They are really nocturnal except during rut and they might show up in the daylight. Feeders are used to attract does in my area, and knowing that the big bucks will only come to a feeder or a food plot during the night, I try to set up 100-200 yds inside of the feeder in the woods where they stage before going out to feed. If you use a trail camera, you'll see where I'm coming from."D [/QUOTE]
