This is my first time setting out feeders with sour corn. I used to get free dog food and had good results with that. But I haven't had any coon hitting my feeders. I used tires and hung them about three feet up so hogs couldn't get to them, and had them snug to the tree. I used grape kool aid for attractant but nothing hitting them. Am I doing something wrong?

How long you had them out ? Probably have a good food source right now and haven't discovered yours yet.

And they will stagger off and be unable to climb a tree. Try adding a little yeast also.
