Why would you want one? When the deer hear the feeder go off, thats when they come.

Any of the free choice drop feeders are quiet, in fact, silent...

But I like seeing the woods come alive with deer hogs turkey coming running to the feeder

I've used all kinds of electric feeders and when they are empty they don't hardly make any noise. It's the corn coming out and hitting the legs of the feeder and the spinning wheel that make the noise.

Tie a bag around the legs of the feeder. it will stop most of the noise. but the corn will fall right under the feeder and the deer will eat it up faster.

spray the corn with wd-40. this will make the corn quiet as it is slung out the spinner. buddy of mine showed me this trick and the deer like the taste of the corn better

No use butter flavored Pam cooking spray works better than WD 40 and the deer like it more.

i have seen a couple guys put an old license plate on the side so the corn would hit it and make it louder.

Nope. Take the corn and the butter flavored Pam, mix together and make popcorn. The popcorn will be silent when slung from the feeder or via gravity feeder tube. You can also load up a copy of Bambi for 'em to watch too.
