Observations about a Remington tripod deer feeder. These are sold at places like wal-mart. Overall, I liked the quality, for the price it seems like a good deal.
how far down do you have your spinner plate and box from your funnel at the bottom. And did you buy the battery clips your self or did they come with it.
oh i totally get ya there man, in that baiting them takes deer out of their natural routine and conforms it to take them to you as oppsed to you having to take on the challenge of sneaking onto the deer's turf and being there when they are. as for confrontation. you are also right
I agree. Unless you have a very low deer population in your particular area, feeding is not a good practice. Also you could set yourself up for a nasty confrontation with other hunters who either take advantage of your efforts to draw in deer or just plain old theft! If you take time to stake out a patch of woods for a few days before the season starts you'll learn where the deer are without I hate to say this but (cheating)! I dont mean to offend anyone, its just my opinion.
i use these but the lags are cheap. I use galvanized fence rail from home depot or take cordless drill to field and run self tapping screws thru the leg joints to hold them together. Also it MUST be anchored or staked to the ground or the hogs will destryor the feeder. I hammer rebar into ground and hose clamp or tie wrap the legs to secure. Happy hunting. Enjoy it now before Obama takes all our guns.
well, theres a line that defines ethical and unethical. killing and predation is a part of nature,, that's why shooting/killing deer is ethical. but because we have such an edge over deer(guns) its so easy to kill an animal, the deer species has no chance. thats why theres a limit on how many deer. and we cross the ethical line when we change the deer's routine so its not a matter of IF we get them, but a matter of WHEN. the deer have better chance of suvival if we have to find them.
