Anybody make one of the deer feeder fillers using a leaf blower? If so, what type of setup did you use? Or, anybody have a commercial one they could recommend? Not looking to break the bank, but have a bad back and need an easier way than climbing a ladder.

I just cut the legs shorter on my feeders. Fill them from the back of my truck. Here is another option. http://www.badassauger.com/#kit

I bought mine from a shrink in Ft. Worth 3 or 4 yrs ago but I don't think he's still around. I found him on Craigslist. Not much help I know but it's nothing more that a metal trash can with a plumbing fitting in the bottom. I think it's a 4" fitting like you'd put under a toilet. It forces the air in one direction. It has a metal cone on top of it just like in the bottom of your feeder. Do a search for feeder filler and you'll find some. I think I paid $120 for mine. I'm not at the ranch or I'd get some pics.
It's true hard work never killed anybody, but I figure, why take the chance. Ronald Reagan
