Feeding Nocturnal Deer

Post by bigbuck »

Hi everyone.
I was wondering if anyone has any tips on how to get deer to come to feed in the day light?
I have many trail cam pictures of mature bucks but there all in the middle of the night.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Auto feeder? Try changing the amount or time it triggers ; but then there will still ALWAYS be a few wise ones that you never see in the light.

Reduce the amount of food you put out. They will have to come in earlier to feed, or it'll be gone !!
