You are right about the food plots. Mine have been fertilized multiple times this fall but the deer are keeping them mowed down close, while the hogs are doing their best to root them up. We noticed something quite unusual a few weeks ago regarding our feeders. The solid-steel pipe legs we use on our tripod feeders can sometimes be spread out and toppled by big hogs if they decided to shove the pipe legs around when the barrel is near-empty and the legs have little weight bearing down on them. This season, I drove t-posts in the ground just inside each leg and u-bolted the t-post to the leg. No feeders have been dumped this season but at one feeder the hogs have dug deep craters around the base of each leg. The pipe legs are not even touching the ground anymore and are hanging in mid-air, held in place only by the ubolts and the deeply sunk t-posts. They dug no holes under the feeder barrel, where the corn actually falls. Never seen anything like it.....
