We had 2 big ones and harvested them both. Son got one during muzzleloader and I got mine during rifle. Pics are in my habitat thread.
And a third one that would have been nice next year was harvested by a neighbor.

Do you not have coons or are they unable to access that feeder?Various other bucks...some pics have some of the featured deer in them...
And one of my favorite pics shows “10” after a doe...

What happen to that one brute you had on camera. Not the one you shot this year but the other one?

I think you are talking about the big 8 point my son got with the muzzleloader. Does this look like the deer you remember?
No that’s a brute but the other one seem like it had a lot more points.I think you are talking about the big 8 point my son got with the muzzleloader. Does this look like the deer you remember?
Never mind Native I looked back on your post you shot the one I was talking about. For some reason I thought it was a different one.
Corn and rice bran. 1000 lbs week...I feed until they stop coming to corn which is around green up. I use mineral blocks for summer census and then I start feeding again when lush vegetation starts getting tough around July/August. Most of these bucks will disappear until late July-September and all of a sudden be there daily...fall is great!
It’s just a thread showing what bucks survived the season. They don’t have to be shooters...I am really excited about some of the young deer even though most wont be ready to take for 2-3 more years...

I'm still holding my breath. We are getting down to the end here. A little over 3 weeks left to go. My neighbors have done a number on them this year. To my knowledge they have taken 10 bucks all 2.5 or younger. We're going to be hurting next year unless something new shows up. The shooters we had on camera have all been harvested. But just because they make it through the season doesn't mean they don't get killed during turkey season. Our bucks don't drop until late March or April. I'm missing 4 bucks that I got pictures of into turkey season last year that never showed back up. Go figure.
Oh we have the coons!

Can those coons eat from that feeder?

I'm interested in the answer, I just bought one for my lease. I'm gonna fence the hogs out, but I'm concerned about the coons. I guess I could get a "coon cone" like you put on a nesting box pole.
Oh yes...they can eat from them...camera crooked
As can the turkeys...

. I guess I'll try the "coon cone" on the post when I put it up and see if that helps.

I’d be on them coons in a heartbeat. Should be pretty easy to get them

Something that seems to help is to take a 5 gallon bucket and slide up over the leg of the feeder through a hole in bottom then put a bolt through leg to hold bucket but you want bucket to spin.Another thing guys swear by is to put Vaseline on the legs.They say twice a year will keep them off
