I have a bachelor group of bucks coming in to a feeder every morning about 3:30-4:00 but they leave out before shooting light. Does anyone have any secrets to get them to stay until light?

Is this a corn feeder? Why is there corn on the ground at that time of the morning?

Turn down the afternoon throw so there isn't much corn left. If they want to eat, they can wait for the morning throw

They are probably having to travel onto your place to get to the corn. You could try turning off the evening setting and just feeding at daylight in the morning.

this x7. it will change your life.
If I send my neighbors a text and ask them to give me feedback on my lawn and plant rye into a giant dong pattern, I'm probably going to get some less than positive feedback. Same goes here.

its corn, but infinitely more powerful.
