Run spin feeders year round. Also have free choice gravity protien feeders going from February thru September every year. I also have a couple of feeders with corn and golden nugget mix. These are in hog proof pens as with the protien feeders.

I feed year round except 10 days prior to deer season per Missouri rules. As soon as I have 2 doe in the freezer I start it up again.Evey other fill I mix about 1/3 protien pellets too 2/3 corn unless the neighbor on the back side plants soy beans then I feed beans he lets me clean up off the ground. When feedin beans I mix 1/4 pellets 3/4 beans every other fill. spins morning and night for 4 sec.
A body at rest tends to stay at rest. A body in motion tends to be lookin for a place to rest.

not yet.
i usually keep one throwing for hogs and a stray axis but haven't been able to get down there.
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

In panhandle we feed from July to February, here I feed the same, but I have a feeder behind the house that I keep going all year so we can watch the antler growth and watch for the first fawns of the year.
Talent is a gift, character is a decision.

Year yound just slow them down Feb-July. Seconds you throw is in direct relation to how far your spin plate is from your funnel.

We keep the feeders in the center of the ranch running year round. Those nearer the edges get shut down from Feb thru Sep.

I feed 365.. Right now I'm feeding 2 seconds twice a day. I will increase the feed times to 6-8 seconds once deer show more activity at my feeders.
