2013-2014 NJW&W Member Pics from Stand/Blind

wow.. caught my attention till i heard the price.. aint worth it in any respect IMO  ...

[BowhunterNJ]

Yeah they are $2K+ and heavy mofos...350lbs. I'd love to have a couple of them, but man...that's a lot of popup blinds and treestands!

I'd probably just spend a few hundred and build one out of wood, carpet it, insulate it, texture camo it...and brush it in.

My buddy in ND built his own blinds out of metal mesh, tarped the roof for rain, and brushed/camoed them. Nice builds, I shot my first buck from a blind out of one!

Is that more of a clubhouse than a blind?

 

It did, however, inspire me to consider going to the local scrap yard to build a "ground shanty" for next year.  Would definitely have to build it on private land, but you could get some old lumber, sheet metal, foam and such to craft a nice hunting shanty.  Would be more of a permanent structure than a blind per se.  Don't let the NJ tax man know, lest you get nailed for having an untaxed permanent structure on your land.

 

But having a nice hunting shanty does sound nice on those really cold and windy days.

You could probably justify using it for an ice fishing shanty in winter  

 

I bet once I'm a real old man and the bones creak and moan and the trees all begin to look too tall, I'll want something like the insulated stump blind....but I have more than a few good years left until that day comes.

Still Hunted a couple Cedar groves this afternoon... got to within 70 or 80 yards of a shed head or big doe.. couldnt get any closer before it bolted...

The third week of January. I gun hunted 2 days in Delaware at a friends property. The first day looked like this.

[Kilbo]

The second day looked like this. Haha!!! I did score a doe on both days so it was a great couple days of hunting.

Can't wait for fall.

[NJfarmgirl]

I'm very ready for the fall too.  Early bow. Can't beat it.  All these pix are from this last September 2013.  The last pic is the doe I got (sorry it's so blurry...I was still shaking...).  

[Hetley75]

Congrats on the doe.
