Whether you choose to attract wildlife for the purpose of hunting or just to enjoy watching these creatures, a wildlife feeder can help you attract the deer you want on your land. By using a directional deer feeder, you can ensure the deer regularly visit any area you desire.
Directional deer feeders allow you to fill them and forget them for a long while. The feeders hold between 100 and 300 pounds of feed, ensuring you don’t need to refill for weeks. These are also equipped with a timer, so you can ensure the feed is regularly dispensed without any human intervention. Set your directional deer feeder in place, fill it with corn, and set the time. Then, sit back and wait for the deer to find it and come to feed.
If you’re a hunter, you may want to set the timer to release the food in the early morning, since this is the best time to hunt. However, if you simply want to watch wildlife from your deck while enjoying your evening glass of wine, set it to release the food around dusk. In no time, the deer will show up every day just like clockwork.
Directional deer feeders are fairly maintenance free. Made from stainless steel, these do not rust and have few mechanical parts that will need to be replaced. To keep these in good shape, it is a good idea to bring your feeder inside when it’s not in use.
There are many retailers that offer directional deer feeders. Stores that specialize in hunting supplies, as well as those that cater to nature lovers, have a variety of sizes and styles available. Once you’ve installed your directional deer feeder, you’re sure to enjoy having deer in abundance on your land very soon.
