Sunset with a view of the Double Mountain

I put my son and nephews to work helping me clear some brush for a fall food plot.

I like the double mountain pic. I hunt some places south and west of them.

Love those double mountains. I'm just about due west on the Stonewall county line.

I put protein blocks in there. The cage keeps the hogs from pushing it away from the camera.

Yes, but that's what I get for not fencing my feeder. We like to hunt hogs too so they get to the block as well. I have other places that the protein feeders are fenced with blocks in there where the hogs can't get to them. I at least like to see what is eating the blocks even if it is hogs.

Thanks. We put up some feeder pens around our corn feeders. The pigglets still get in off and on. I will be putting our blocks on a stand this year the rabbits and rats in our area put a huring on the feed blocks on the ground, but the deer seemed to really like them as well.

I have a love hate with the hogs. I like to shoot/eat them, but they deer spottings and most notably the buck activity has skyrocketed at the first feeder we penned. We like the hogs, but in the end we are there for the deer. so we are penning feeders except for one which will be our dedicated hog hunting stand, hopefully it will increase the productivity of hog hunting since its the only feeder they can access.
