I notice more and more every year the deer don’t like going straight under the feeder especially the bucks and was thinking about a directional feeder motor to see if that helps but I remember 4 or 5 years ago a buddy of mine had one and hated but that was awhile ago, didn’t know if anyone has used one and has some pros or cons on them

My only other idea would be to add more leg attachment to the feeder to try and get it up higher anyone try that out?

That has always the case with my use of feeders. I've always kept the bottom of the feeder about 6 ft above ground and the deer usually keep it cleaned up, including the area directly underneath.

Diamond feeders has them, I have both directional and broadcast from Diamond, but no real difference that I can see
