only run your feeders for about 2-4 seconds at a time until they start cleaning it up or you could have rotten corn under the feeder if it ever rains

 Regular corn will do the trick.

Alright guys. This weekend I'm going out to put the feeders up and start feeding. Any tips to get the deer coming to the corn quick? Vanilla. Imatation or real vanilla works. Sounds crazy but it works. Whitetail or mule deer it works. I poured it on the lid of the deer feeder or just around the lease. I would go to Dollar General and buy cases of the .50cent vanilla and the gals thought I was doing a lot of baking. Good luck this year...

I can go to my lease fill my feeder, turn it on after being off since the end of season and when I do in matter of hours there will be activity from then until the corn is gone after season is over.
The sound the feeder makes alone gets them running my way, most of the time.
Good luck this year!

Thanks guys. Got everything set up. Put regular corn and some stuff called Texas hold em. It's got soy beans and salt in it. Filled the feeder on the hill and went to put the feeder in the bottom. Came back to get the corn an saw 3 does and a fawn already on it. So I guess they like it.
