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)...

We also have 2 feeders at each location (5 locations total) and all go off twice a day.

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.

Twice daily, at about dawn and about an hour before dusk from Sept 1st through early spring. Then we usually set it to 7am and 11pm for hog hunting.

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

Mine too. I've been real happy with them. Don't have to mess with a clock!

Twice in the am and twice in the pm. Currently 7:15 and 8 am & 4 and 4:45 pm
Earlier in the season, when the suns comes up earlier, I set the morning to 7 and 7:45 (which is 8 and & 8:45 during daylight savings time).

Twice a day. 0730 and 1630. Any earlier in the afternoon and the Turkey's will eat every kernel.

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.
