What time do you set your feeders to go off in the AM and PM?

15 mins after sunrise 15 mins before sunset are the settings I have. Guy next to me has his go off at 6am and 4pm because I can hear it. I can tell when he is out of corn too

I'm superstitious. I don't like a late feeder throw. It makes me think they know to wait on come eat after dark. I usually do an early morning and a late morning if a second one at all.
My FIL is the sunrise sunset guy

Ours is about that time but I feel as if that is too late. Almost like we are just feeding the deer for the night.

6:30 AM and 4:30 PM in South Texas. That puts me about a 1/2 hr before sunrise which is legal shooting time and about 1.45 hrs before end of legal shooting light.

It ultimately probably doesn't matter. Half of my pictures show the deer spinning the thing with their tounge.

I feel like an afternoon feed time encourages nocturnal activity, especially with hogs.

7:15 and 4:30 for us. I also know guys that do a couple quick spins in the afternoon as opposed to one longer one - say 3 PM and another at 4:30. This is in central Texas FYI.

Only in the morning. No need to get them any more nocturnal than they are.

7am and 3pm. That being said, I haven’t seen a single deer at a feeder this season. But I like having them there for the confidence factor.
