new Turkey and deer stand

[101PROOF]

My friend and I put up a new turkey blind this weekend for Bow hunting.
I think it should work out great for video tapping the hunt

Looks great. You brushed it in nicely. How do you shoot out of it?

[101PROOF]

We need to go back out and add more ties to secure the burlap to chicken fence, after thats done we will cut out two shooting holes on each side.
The shooting holes will be the same size as the windows in a bear ground blind.
I will use the same shoot through windows as the ground blinds.
You can see them on the picture with my friend in it.

We need to cut one and try it out to make sure it's in a good spot, but where thinking that it will be high enough you will need to stand to shoot.

Sounds like it should work great. Now all you need is a suicidal turkey.

I just started bow hunting Turkey the last two years.

The same spot I put my ground blind (some one stoled it last year) and I did get a turkey each year.

The blind looks good.  I just put one up last weekend.  I used panel fencing and weaved brush in it.  The crappy part was using the bolt cutters to cut the holes for shooting and filming, but it wasnt to bad.

Did you put the vertical posts into the ground? How far? Just for my own info. I am thinking of putting one up this summer.

I will check- My dad put the post in for me.

He used his ice auger with a post hole attachment for dirt (you should be able to rent one) He purchase his attachment at Fleet Farm
the hole was about 4 1/2 feet down and then he filled about a foot down with cement on each pole.

Is that a WPA sign right next to your stand?

Is that a WPA sign right next to your stand?

That is the sherburne state wildlife refuge.
My dad has land the buts up to that on two sides.
You can not hunt turkey in the refuge, but if you can call the turkey on your land it's all good.
The bad part is last year Bow hunting deer. Bird or small game hunters would walk the fire road.
Last year I had one hunting blind stolen, and had several hunter walk by. One day 23 hunters walked by my stand.

101, nice looking setup.

As for the WPA sign within spitting distance of your location, I muzzleload hunted a setup exactly the same as that last year. The landowner has a nice elevated rig similar to yours to a T, including the no hunting state park sign right behind it. I had a 180 degree shooting radius, but couldn't shoot directly behind me (park).

The guy in the stand can't be to bad, he drinks my kind of beer.
