If there's one think I like about the hunting business, it's the fact that there are some sharp old boys our there who know hunting, and how to build the kind of products that hunters need and want. These companies not only become successful, they then remain successful by continuously tweaking and improving their product lines. One such company is Texas Hunter Products. Owned by Bob Brock and partners, this company began with nothing more than what they call a "mighty good deer blind" more than 50 years ago. Since then, the company's product line has grown to include not just top-of-the-line blinds, but also feeders and accessory products. All that is driven by a simple philosophy - continually tweak and improve their existing product line, and develop new products that are functional, dependable and affordable...and that meet the specific needs of hunters better than anything else on the market. FEEDERS Here's an example of what I mean. In the early 1960's, they patented their first game feeder. They were also the first company to offer a solar panel for their feeders. The latest is the "E-Z Set" Digital Timer. Today, every versatile E-Z Set Timer now comes standard with Max Guard - engineered to protect your timer and motor from battery cross-connects. The E-X Set Timer includes these value-added features - EZ To Set Time, EZ Feed Scheduling, EZ and Safe Feed Testing, ability to work with any 6 or 12-volt rechargeable battery, fits any feeder (universal adapter included), pre-wired for solar charger and built-in Battery Tester. With this timer, setting an accurate feeding time is a snap thanks to an easy three-button input. The timer is also easy to program for up to nine feedings per day, with individual run times from 1-60 seconds. Best of all, even with the battery unplugged, the EZ-Set will remember your feed settings for over a year. Texas Hunter Products offers a full line of feeders with prices starting at $89 for their popular game feeder kit. A 350-pound feeder complete with a digital feeder kit and 8-foot extension legs is only $279. The feeder capacities go up to 650 pounds. The company also has a protein feeder, the PF300. It has an exclusive patented funnel, footpads with 24-inch stabilizing stakes and no moving parts. This feeder is affordably priced at only $229 and will feed corn, protein pellets, soybeans - just about anything you put in there. Watch for the all-new Directional Feeder (DF125) to be introduced in 2005. Utilizing a high velocity air stream to project feed pellets into the water; the Texas Hunter Fish Feeder is a high-efficiency directional feeder with a wedge-shaped feed pattern 45 feet in length by 20 feet wide. These directional feeders will dispense feed for your fish up to 9 times per day and may also be used to feed corn for wildlife. An optional solar charger ensures your fish will be fed on a regular basis for a long-time - helping you grow bigger, healthier fish faster than any other product on the market. BLINDS Still, blinds are where Texas Hunter Products began, and this is the bulk of their product line. These blinds - often referred to as "shooting houses" - are built to last a lifetime. The side panels are made of Starboard XL Marine Grade Polymer sheets, a maintenance free material that can withstand sun, rain, heat and harsh weather, and will never need painting. The custom-extruded aluminum corner posts, window and door guides, one-piece galvanized roof and steel floor supports are designed for life-long durability and easy assembly. All include the company’s deluxe 360-degree viewing system featuring silent sliding Plexiglas window panels, plus a unique sliding entry door – easily one of the safest and most practical blind entry systems in the business. Both 4x4 and the roomy 4x8 blinds are available. Simply stated, Texas Hunter Products offers top-of-the-line products designed to last a lifetime – period.
