What does your deer blind look like?

I bought a new deer blind. I haven't got it completely set up yet, but got it to the farm. I'm looking forward to spending some time in this set up when the weather gets nasty.

It is a Stampede Camo blind with bowhunting windows and a 10 foot tower platform.

If you have a cool stand or blind, post it here.

That's a good looking blind, Mark. I have an old port-a-potty I hunt out of. Kind of redneck but it works great, especially when it 30 degrees outside with the wind blowin'

Corry, there's a thousand jokes a person could make about that, but they're all kind of crappy.

I got the blind set up on its feet saturday. I was able to do it by myself, but it took a lot of chains and pullies.

That's a perfect hunting blind.

Next time you're putting one up, use your phone dial for help!

Thanks! Unfortunately, it's a little noisey, since it's made out of plastic. You have to really be careful about how you move.

our blind is the same way Mark and it's made out of wood. Plywood and 2x4's. Any movement on the floor is super loud. I'm going to have to get some kind of carpet in there to dampen the sound.

I'd post the pictures I took but when I lost my phone they got lost with them. (note to self: sync iphone at least weekly!)

I figured wood would be a lot quiter. I was thinking about spraying foam insulation in the cracks of mine and seeing if that reduces the crackling.
