In places like Pennsylvania and other area where bears are prominent setting up your normal deer feeder is just not an option. As I’m sure you know a bear can and will just about destroy your corn feeder if in reach. There are about a half dozen bears on the mountain that already thwarted my attempts at hanging a feeder up.
Saw something on the internet that pointed me in this direction. Figured I'd build a DIY deer feeder. Found two trees about 10 to 13 feet apart, strung a 20 foot chain between them about 16 feet off the ground and connected the chain quick links to hold it in place. Have a pulley in the center of the chain help hoist the barrel. To do that I used a 1200lb boat winch, you don’t need that much pulling power, but that’s just what I ended up using.
Have a list of every part I used and how much it cost. Check it out at: www.sintax77.co...
Feel free to ask me any questions about the setup.
