Nice looking buck hunterman! Hopefully you will get him this year and he will be even bigger . Hey, is that a homemade deer feeder? I am thinking about making a cheap one out of PVC pipe for this year. Gonna start looking at YouTube to get some directions. Do they work well? Thanks. Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
Thanks man! I hope he shows back up. Yes sir that is a homemade pvc pipe feeder! There super easy to make, cheap, and last a long time.
This is how I do mine except I don't use a top cap. Just a rock if I even do that... I also just spray paint mine black just to blend them in some.
Very nice tall rack I hope u get a chance at him this year we need those points lol Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
What's better a deer feeder or just putting it on the ground I've always just put it on the ground do u only use corn Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
I have found that if you have turkeys on your property it's best to use some type of feeder if the corn lays on the ground for any length of time. One molded piece of corn will kill a turkey. We have a few at times so we use feeders, I've also built a "cattle trough" to put in my "big buck" spot. I've been doing a lot of research and from what I've seen bigger bucks don't use tube feeders much! Supposedly, it's best to be on the ground for them. so I figure maybe a trough will work for the big bucks but protect what turkeys we have from eating molded corn. I use mainly corn and sugar beat crush in my hunting spots. Other feeders and mineral sites we use better grade stuff!
Makes sense I've never had one turkey on my corn pile in 2 years and I've put it out all year round across the road I see turkeys all the time but never on r side I didn't know turkeys could die from molded corn either that is nice to know thanks for the heads up Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
They get some type of organism from it and it makes them sick! There was a university that done research on this... I'll find it and post it.
While we are waiting ever so patiently for 10/1, here’s my last buck (gun). I let everything walk the past 2 years waiting on something at least bigger than this or at least a 4yo. He was 2 or 3. I measured it and had it all written down somewhere but I’ve moved since then, 124 seems to ring a bell. Check out my sweet taxidermy skills on that squirrel! Lol I need another thumb tack I think
U see turkeys eating in fields all the time some of that corn has to be moldy I've never seen one dead turkey in field at random not saying ur wrong just find it very odd Sent from my iPhone using Bowhunting.com Forums
