Here is a picture looking out of my stand. The feeder and pen is about 145 yards from the stand. The sendero extends out to about 275 yards total. The second picture was taken out of the stand of a buck in the feedpen.  
Bartender, bring me anything except brake fluid, cause I don't plan on stopping!

I have 1 at 62 yards, and one at 75 yards, and an archery treestand at 22 yards.
Not easy to get 100 yards away in east texas.
We have a lot of cover on our place!

It's a 6'x 5' box stand on a 20' tower.

I put one close(80 yards) another further away(160 yards). This way kids and other less seasoned hunters are more successful with the closer shot option.

I have one blind that the feeder is 110 yards and the other is 225 yards. My eyes are getting so bad that it is getting hard to judge a deer at the 225 yard feeder. Naturally, I sat there last weekend and saw a shooter buck, but by the time I figured it out, he decided to leave. Hopefully I will be a little quicker on the draw this weekend.

I took my rangefinder with me and lasered my feeders this weekend. The distances are:
150, 133, 174, 138, 170, 120, 139, 112, 106, 194, 113, and 204 yards.
I always thought they were a little farther than they are. Until rangefinders came along, I figured myself a good estimator of range. Not now.
