I've had hanging feeders too and they can be a recipe for injury. If you go with hanging, be damn careful under it or around the winch if you don't pull it up with an atv. A hand winch will break bones or knock your teeth out if you let the handle slip and a few hundred pounds falling from a tree if a rope pops could be deadly. Metal cable is safer than rope. Squirrels will chew rope.
I've gone to ground level directional feeders. I don't have a pig problem but if I did, I'd still use them but run a fence around them. I can fill them while standing on the ground. They throw corn about 20 feet.
