I’d have bet it woulda worked just fine ….
Gotcha i misunderstood I thought you made the feed tube “ thing”You are write on both accounts - I bought the head and bolted it on and had some pipe welded on it to sturdy it up cause the head was heavy - had a piece welded at the bottom also to mount on the post
When I put sweet feed in one of my feeders, it filled up with ants.May try that milkman
I would really like to make this work. I don’t want to have to go spin cast unless I have too
I bought this attachment at Academy and the deer wear it out.
I have a problem with coons but we have been trapping like heck and I recently added bird spikes all around it but the feeder is empty till closer to deer season.

I have this one as well, it works great.
I have used it in 3 different locations. The deer learn to use it quickly. They will go through 300 lb of corn in 2-3 weeks.
You can adjust the spouts on the Banks feeder and slow the feed down. With deer coming regularly it takes about 3-4 weeks to empty a Banks feeder on the lowest setting but only 1-2 weeks wide open. We keep ours on the lowest setting.I had the same one on one of mine and they took to it just fine. However, after loosing part of our lease and having to move to another spot on the opposite side, I went back to a spin-cast feeder because they would empty it in a week - mostly at night.
I haven't tried any of the post feeders. I like to move my feeders when it's wet because it gets so muddy around the them and makes a mess. I usually only spin the feeder on one of the legs and it helps keep from rutting up the place.Ddavis have you tried the post mount boss bucks - they look good
What do you guys think I should do? Just be hard headed and make them take to it or change it out?

Yep. It has a collar that slides up and down and I had it set as far down as it would go and still allow corn to pass through. There'd be deer coming and going all night every night.Mine are closed up as much as it’ll do and they’ll empty in in 10 to 12 days
That feeder and banks feeder are worlds apart in the kinda plastic they are made out ofView attachment 1290043I assume the squirrels and coons would just chew right through this and any plastic feeders like the Banks?

Lol it’ll bout make ya pee a littleThe plastic is way thicker on a banks BUT squirrels will still chew a hole in the bottom of the feed ports and be sitting inside waiting on you to take the top off.
