Minimum 75 yards for me and max of 150-200. It's pretty close to opening day be clearing and disrupting a bunch of brush etc although they do adapt to change pretty quick. If you're set up at a 4 way, you may want to just put another feeder up on one of the other sendero's at about 100-150 yards. If all elements are equal in each direction, I would suggest putting it to the north of the blind since we'll hopefully be getting most of our weather from the north. Just some thoughts. Good luck on the new lease!!!!

I have mine about 60 yards, I could go farther but my 10 yr old does most of the shooting so sticking with the closer yardage for now.

I have two feeders, one 130 yards & the other only 40 yards. I wish the second one was further, but it just isn't possible.
A fence row / tree line separates the two feeders & the closer one is on the opposite side of the fence from my blind. I trimmed some vines to have a clear view, and it helps hide the blind from view.
Hopefully the distance won't be an issue.

Just right at 100yds from both blinds! Windows have very rudimentary curtains to block light and give me a little fudge room for moving around. Both blinds have shots up to about 150 or 175.
