How do you hand corn when you can't hand corn everyday

You build you one of these hope it'll trick them.
Started out as a 5-gallon Moultrie feeder added a bigger bucket and I'll hoist to make it easier to pull up.

Nice try, but hand corn is hand corn. I only get to do it weekly, 20 to 40lbs piles with a line and it seems to last a good part of the week. Fleshing up pile when getting to the stand.

Each time I go to my place (2/3 times per week) I run my cart down the trail that my blind sits next to, turn on the road feeder and let 'er fly. I do the same in the dark before I hunt. It works fine and so will your hoisted feeder !

150-200 lbs at a time

I make my corn piles a couple of hundred pounds, easier to smell and you don't have to keep scenting it up when you keep replenishing them.

Nice try? Where do you buy "hand corn"? Please let me know

If it's on the ground and the feeder is 30' up a tree, then how will the deer know if it's hand corn or not?

If I put 100 lbs of corn on my lease all at once I will have some really happy pigs

Hand corn with the other for the stranger.

No joke.
And pouring it out in a line....the cows will love it.


I hand corn often as I can. Especially in prep of the wind I need for that stand.
I Throw about 3-5 pounds out at a time.
I scatter it in a small area where my shooting holes are at.

For a day or two

They are really happy for a day or two until I start feeding them arrows!!

Two things. I set up a new feeder on the ranch about two months ago tested it on Sunday and all was good. Three weeks later when I hit back to the ranch I pulled the camera card and had every animal species coming to the feeder and the funny thing was the feeder never went off again and was still full of corn. I was amazed, heck a bag of corn could last all season without ever feeding. Second I dumped 25 pounds of corn by a tripod that doesn't have a feeder and had animals coming for 5-6 days just checking to see what they could find. What I learned is the smell of corn brings them in even if they can't find it to eat it. The biggest buck I have seen on camera came to the hand corn off the beatin path. I'll be doing a lot of "hand corn" this season.
