I would like to get a deer feeder set up this year to assist with a stand I enjoy sitting in but that can have some long shots.
I've wanted to make a deer feeder for awhile and while checking out what my local Academy had for feed spreaders and battery boxes I've noticed that some of the budget 2 piece 30 gallon feeders would probably be cheaper than me making my own feeder. But are the worth it?
My plan for a DIY feeder was to use a decent quality 30 gallon drum I have lying around and attach an "American Hunter SunSlinger Game Feeder Kit with Solar Charge" and come up with study legs with something I have lying around the farm.
So the question basically is, are the budget <$150 feeder worth it or better to build my own redneck engineered one?
