Some great looking setups!

well that is surprising and disappointing, because I'm lucky to get a week 3G or less signal most of my hunting places. I just got a Covert Blackhawk (Verizon), so I'm just now testing it, jury still out, may need to tinker with sensitivity settings. It's my first wireless, I have one other...

Welcome to the area! They are thick up there!

Interesting issue. Where I hunt, it's not an issue. Where I live, it's bad enough that there already essentially no limit, but if the current proposed changes are approved by the legislature, bonus tags will be for 15 deer and there will be a September gun doe weekend, just two of about 15...

Love the hay wagon idea!

Great story!

thanks! I like that Redneck blind. I'm trying to utilize blinds I have, but the idea of doing acrobatics to climb in the triangle door is appealing! A buddy showed me a blind on sportsmans guide that one whole side flips up. Tempting! Will increase platform to at least 6'-6"x8 though. Funny...

Anyone tried a platform with a ground blind? I’ve seen a couple with at least one that was an oops without enough room to transfer from ladder to climbing in. If so What’s the ideal size? Balance practical size to use but considering weight to install. I’m thinking 5x7 minimum but 5x8 may be...

Man I have wanted to do something like this for years and I could use it so bad right now! I even bought enough cedar for a floor to make just a platform 4'-6' high for a ground blind either trailer mounted or portable "tip up". You guys have me wanting to do this style bad!

Just for another opinion that tape is a surveyor type tape. Surveying on Sunday, gotta make hay while the sun shines, although I agree it's more likely a friend doing a favor. I'm not a surveyor, but work in the biz. In Kentucky at least, neither your survey or theirs can settle a dispute...

National Deer Alliance for one, possibly Sportsmen's Alliance. I think QDMA was at least to what extent they could, though that focus may be moved over to NDA more because politics can be problematic for charitable organizations. ETA: wish I had specific references, just thinking aloud on...

That is a piece of art!

I hope you are successful. I do think some organizations are working with states to better follow through with legit prosecution and penalties. Sounds like it could be a good case for one of them to use as a case example as a possible resource or extra card in your pocket.

That episode and the one of the same topic from the MSU Deer Lab podcast are favorites! If you haven't tried that podcast it's a great one too.

I have to admit Yamaha has some good year end values. As does Kawasaki. Thoughts on the Mule?
