How high is the upside down barrel off of the ground roughly?

Mine is about 3 1/2 foot to the top of the upside down/closed end of the barrel. No coon has got by it since it was installed about a year ago. I used one of those round totes
that have the rope handles with the lip and plus about 2" cut off so there was nothing left for them to get a grip on.

I'm pretty sure the water washed it away. I put it in a different spot this time on top of a stump, but the water came up pretty damn good last night. I should've know better...oh well. I haven't gone to look yet, I ain't going down and slopping around.

*As in the creek came over the banks*

I've seen 2 fresh TRs on the neighbors while walking fence lines. I'm going to keep track on them since they're so close and undoubtedly effecting my mineral game. Curious to see how they last and what pics I get of deer crossing over to their rocks.

As I drove by one of my hunting spots and watched the deer feed in the middle of the day without a care in the world, I rolled down my window yelled at them and flicked them off!

I've got some corn and picked up two bags of bird seed. We will see if I have time to get it out after lunch...was craving some Big City Pizza!

Put out a delicious concoction of corn and crushed TR and a camera to inventory how many bucks are still carrying. Also scouted Cabela's for new armaments with which to harvest them

Put out a salt block and a trace mineral block a week ago this past Friday. Swapped a card off the camera looking over it and the does have found it and are really pounding it. No bucks shed or still carrying have visited it yet though....uggh.

I have one a brake this morning...woke me up! That's for sure.

I'm gonna try my best to get that corn and bird seed out this afternoon. Might even try to stop at TSC to get another trophy rock.
