Never used them before and I have noticed a lot more of them for sale even at academy. Let’s talk about the good and the bad... your experiences?

Most if not all of the gravity feeders I am aware of are used with protein pellets usually allowed to run out / be empty just before deer season starts.
If you allow free choice 24 hr access to corn with a gravity feeder the deer never have a reason to come to it during daylight / legal hunting hours.
