Have heard bucees in Wharton has best price on the AS 600# stand and fill. Can anyone verify price and availability down there?
Also experience wise how much corn ends up underneath it? Anybody use there bolt on corn shield similar to the hb design? AS looks a little flimsy on the website.

I can not comment on the price question, but I do use the corn shield. I didn't bolt it to the bottom legs, just laid it across and it stays unless I move it. It is essential as a lot of the corn will end up under ther feeder useless for deer. My AS 600# feeder is not flimsy at all, very rugged and should last a long time out in the wild. Been very happy with it, just picked it up for a new feed pen this spring and been thrilled with it.

I have the all season S&F. The deer get the corn under it too. No need for the shield IMO.

Might be worth checking out West Texas Game Feeders. They have one they call the ground hugger. Not much can do damage to them. And they come with a good warranty.

oh k guys why go to the expense unless your wanting the larger feeder. Why not just cut your legs down on your feeders and stake it down? You will save a years worth of corn in my view not spending the 550. for a new feeder. Yes sir that is what I did.
