If the average hopper spins out corn for say, about 5-6 seconds, how much corn hits the ground? One pound, two pounds? What’s your experience I want to feed twice a day. I don’t want to fatten them up, just keep them coming.

Thanks, Advice taken.We can’t answer your question, to many variables. You need to set it for a 5 or 10 second spin, and get a five gallon bucket ready to place up and around your spinner. Hit the normally provided “test” spin, place the bucket around the spinner and catch the corn. Since you’re on this forum, I assume you have a reloading scale. Measure ten kernels of corn, and then count how many kernels spun out in your test bucket.
Or, you can use your wife’s weight scale and measure the corn in the bucket! LOL
Really only 2 answers.What’s the best on timing it to get some of the late night bucks to find the corn?
for sure. and the soybeans must be roasted. i used to use triple grip, but the peanuts just brought in the varmints more. now i use rack attract, which is cheaper.Soybean and corn blends work a whole lot better.
you will fatten up the raccoons if you don't have some sort of controls in place. spinner guard, live traps, night vision. or draw them off with stale honey buns. lolIf the average hopper spins out corn for say, about 5-6 seconds, how much corn hits the ground?

yup. and the state of charge of the battery, the gap between the funnel and spinner, the time. i try to set mine early enough before dark and stingy enough that the does are anxious to get to the buffet, knowing it will run low before the 'coons move in. 6 seconds is usually max for my moultrie all-in-ones.It depends on the hopper.
I think there isn’t a 100% good answer to this. Hunting pressure, available browse, how big a herd and area.What’s the best on timing it to get some of the late night bucks to find the corn?
