Time Change/Feed Change?

[Ironman]

I was simply encouraging a new member and letting him know that not all of us are “smart” *****e$. At least not all the time.

Well, in all fairness, there are a lot more dumb***** than smart***** around Livingston.

I feed free choice and don't worry about it.

Mine is free choice as well. I spin and they have free choice to eat it or not...

I forgot to change my feeder times last weekend. All my deer where an hour off.

I’ve seen to struck some kind of nerve with the “veteran hunters” and “veteran members” of this site.

I came to this site mainly because I shot archery tournaments as a kid and did some hunting growing up. It’s not until now that I have the opportunity to hunt, out side of a buddy of mines place once every couple years for a doe, to have my own place and set up.

So as I sat here with my 5yo son, on his first hunt and watched the coons come out, the question was brought to mind.

Maybe it was a rookie or even a dumb question but relax on the sarcasm.

Don't take it personal.

There is no need to change the feeder time. Here is an example why.

You go to your place and set up a new feeder that you set to go off one hour before dark.

March 11 rolls around and we go to daylight savings time. Your watch springs forward, nothing else does. The feeder is still going off one hour before sunset just like it did the day before.

Think about it like this. Say a farmer wakes up every morning when his rooster crows at sunrise. Rooster sees the sun, crows, farmer wakes up. Daylight savings hits. Does anything change? No. Sun comes up like it did the day before, rooster crows, farmer gets up. Same goes for your feeder. It spins and hour before sunset no matter what time it is.
