Saturday night, I was in the hospital suffering from a kidney stone and the sucker has been bothering me for almost a month. Well, my wife wanted to cheer me up and make feel better and brought me home a new deer feeder today. Dang! I was surprised! Its all metal and is on a stand, but I plan on suspending it from a cable and winch.
My Wife is a goodun!

Get well soon so you can set it up and reap some deer.
Happy healing,

Yes it sounds like you got a good woman, does she hunt too? Hope you heal up soon so you can hunt.

Get better soon, A winch and cable is a great Idea, If you have pigs like we do they will surly knock that over...

Keep the legs on it to protect the driver and timer unit when you lower it or in case it gets dropped.

Hope you passed the stone...those things are painful.

Two years ago, I had a 9mm x 7.5mm stone. Lytho did not work so they had to go in and get it!   It was christmas, so my wife got me my first xbow. It is nice to have a good wife. Hope you are feeling better.

I wonder if I faked having a stone, if my wife would get me some hunting gear? I'm probably dreaming.

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE CABLE BETWEEN TWO TREES THAT ARE AT LEAST 12FT APART AND HANG IT 14 FT UP.USE A BOAT WINCH ,PULLEY AND A CABLE STOP .YOU MAY HAVE A VISITOR LIKE I DID ON MY CAN FEEDER..HERE IS A PIC

I've got it fixed up almost ready to hang between trees. I changed the timer, because every time you changed the battery you had to reset everything all over again. I should have it hanging in a couple months. The only thing left is to get a winch , pulley's and cables. I'll take some picks when I get it hanging and put a trail cam on it.
Thanks everybody for your input, David
