Where's yours Draftstud?

...let's see em, don't be shy boys.
 
Careful Draftstud. I see the lat and long on the bottom of the screen shot. I might be in your stand on opening day. ;)
 
And he will most likely have a game warden there if you are.

Someone ought to start a Tree Stand thread! There are the 'Wall Tents' threads and 'Camp Tent' - it'd be fun to see what guys have hangin, or how extravagant they are?! TV's base board heating, refig, oven, etc.
 
Here's mine. It's 7X7. Not to big to hunt from by yourself, but big enough to get 3 people in there if you need to. 4 would be pushing it.

First built.

Fancy paint job.

Looking at it from the next hill over. I think it blends in pretty well.

But with some ingenuity, a 4wd tractor and some great help, we got it back together!

I have some tripod stands that I use along some field edges, but my hill blind is my go to spot most of the time. I've shot a lot of pigs, coyotes and a few deer out of it in the last few years.

Paden, next time I'm down to Myrtle Beach I'll go by Lowe's and get you some hurricane ties for that roof.
 
My apologies, you probably know him. I do not.
Hmm, I joke with everyone here, whether I know them or not. That's probably why I have pissed you off so many times. You take me way too seriously. ;)

I used to get worked up when people said things on the forum that I didn't like. Then I realized it is the internet. :D
 
Mine is multi-purpose. Second floor is a gun ported two hole privy. I sublease the ground floor to Montana and Colorado hog hunters.;)

Cushman, I have an open date.:D
 
This is the view from where mine was, I had a great hole carved out in a big cedar on this knob. pastures are starting to come back though we have will be laying off the deer for atleast another year.
