Just curious....
My feeder has options for several feed times, however I only have it set for once in the morning and once in the afternoon. Maybe I need to adjust (next year)...

Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

It's not how you fall, It's how you get up.

I throw three times a day. Right around day break, around 2, and about 5 pm. I figure on a decent chunk of days deer move early afternoon, give em something to come over for.

Our feeders are light activated, they go off about 30 minutes after sunup and about 30 minutes before sundown.

Twice a day. 0730 and 1630. Any earlier in the afternoon and the Turkey's will eat every kernel.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it.
Don't text and drive.

Twice here. One in the morning and one in the evening. The morning for 4 seconds and the evening for only 3. In the past when I threw more corn they wouldn't eat all of it and started feeding in the middle of the night.

I'd ask him if he's pregnant. He missed a s__tload of periods. I'll take "things that look like a uterus" for $200 Alex.
