One short gravity feeder left and this hog has laid claim to it, trap incoming this week.

Found these yesterday walking the railroad track that goes thru the farm.

They say you can judge a deers rack by the diameter trees he rubs.

Passed a really good 9 point in that area last year because I didn't want to get wet crossing the creek, I'd bet he made those.

Does that gravity feeder get used pretty good by your deer? Next year im looking to go to something like that to avoid my hog situation. Wasnt sure how well they take to something like that?

The deer use it until the hogs take over. I've seen hogs get on their back legs with their front legs hugging these gravity feeders. Pigs also clog the openings with mud off their snouts so nothing can eat. Those feeders are the On-Time "Buckeye" models, I wouldn't recommend them if you have pigs as they are too low. I only used one this year and knew better when I put it out, the rest of them are in the barn.
Switched over to the #350 Boss Buck feeders this year and they work well, no hogs, or raccoons, can reach the feed tube, only deer.
350 pounds of corn lasts 4 weeks on average and the deer took to them quickly, within a few days.

This is a good sized tree

Is that some type of cedar? Everyone I see of those has a buck scrape on it. Must be the scent. Smells like a cedar.
Edit, just looked it up, looks like Eastern Red Cedar.

Figured I would change it up a little. Here are a few of deer that are no longer with us, and a neat wood duck trail cam pic.
