That is a pretty creepy pic. Who wants a mustache ride?

Wet cob..... can't keep enough out!  That and apples..... the deer here can go through about 50#'s of cob a week... but if apples are out with the cob, they will eat them first.

I could buy a whole beef if I put out an all-you-can-eat feeder like that....  We just put out a gallon or two a day.

You don't have a problem with that hole plugging up?

I want 1 or 2. I have the bigger ABS pipe also. Actually Charlie has it but I know he won't care if I take some. ;)

Is the taste of the bait worth the sting of the hook twice?

Someone should start a thread, just on home made feeders.  I would like to see MasonCtyHitmans ABS feeders.  It would be cool to see what others have come up with also.

Deer won't come within 20' of my home made feeder, might as well have tied a cougar to it.

the pipe ones are really easy to make, 4 to 6 inch pipe is the best size, i only had 3 inch pipe laying around so thats what i used. cut the bottom at a 45 deg angle so you can poke  it in the ground a bit but still leaves a hole at the bottom, tie to a tree ad fill, i used coffee cans, the plastic foldgers ones helps to refill each time, here is a pic of one of them

The only problem I see is if there is bears in the area then they rip apart anything!!
