Thanks Tejas yea i figured i would wrap a chain around a fence post and then snap both sides back through the carabiner so it would rotate around it. Also it would take a HOSS to bend that 4" sch 80 around a tree or fence post. We accidentally ran over that piece with a 1 ton flat bed and all it did was bend the bell on the end i cut off.

I put one out last weekend that is 10' long. It might be too long, but will see this weekend. I also only drilled 3/8" holes, which might be too small. Anxious to see how it did.
I am mainly using it to keep the hogs away from the feeders until after season is over. However, if one is there the same time my AR has a full mag, dirt baths for all!

Put a false compartment about 6" long in one end of it. Put a handful of pebbles in there and after it is empty they think corn is still in the tube and keep coming back.
Just attach a steel ring to the chain and drop it over a T-Post. They won't tear up the PVC because it spins and rotates. Or just rocks bigger than the holes you drill works good too.

They are slaying mine, 'cleaned them both out in between trips (3-4 days). Starting to thin them out. Cleaned a nice boar 2 days ago, sow and 3 piglets trapped right now. This is getting fun!

I went back to the lease Saturday and the hog tube was working fine. They had found it and moved it around some . It was not empty. I just kicked it around to let some more corn out and left ity. The 1/2 inch holes were working okay.
