Two Person Deer Blind Video Tour (5 x 8 - Elevated)
Рет қаралды 20,959
2 жыл бұрынThis is a shooting box blind that I built (in panels) and put up at this location, without machinery - about 5 years ago. I learned the hard way that it's worth the extra time to anchor all elevated deer blinds to the earth and I also that OSB is not the best long term choice for exterior sheeting on a deer blind.

We hunt lots of flat land in Louisiana and we usually have bottom of window/shooting levels at 36-39", which works out really well since we use office chairs on casters and pressurized cylinders that raise and lower the chairs by about 6-8". In 5'x7' or 5'x8' stands we may roll 1'-2' in either direction to take a look/shot, especially if in this size box alone. Great stand and video. Liked, subscribed, & HIT THE BELL.

Those patio chairs do sit a little lower than office chairs. It definitely depends on how close you have your head to the window as well. Thanks for watching, commenting and subscribing!!

Nice! I'm repairing 3 old deer blinds on my new property! Looks almost like yours, but without windows!

Just use a strap to raise the hatch instead of a big handle. So nothing is sticking up inside. Like a 8” piece of ratchet strap and staple it to the front side of the trap door framing let it lay on top of the floor.

That's a good idea. Funny you mention it. That's exactly how I did it with the trap doors on the blinds that I built after this one.

Appreciate your detailed descriptions. I’ve scouted a good location using a ground blind and my winter job will be to build an elevated box blind, working in my heated shop. I’ll use a skid steer to set it so I’m building the box in one piece and the base as another. Do you have a preference for set posts over the 8-degree angle sitting on the ground?
@UncleBucks 2 жыл бұрын
I'd go with the angled leg option if you are placing it on level ground. It's a bit tricky to get your base level if the terrain is sloping though, so in that case I'd bury them like in this video. The wider legs definitely help to keep it from blowing over but be sure to anchor it to the ground either way..

What color is that
@UncleBucks Жыл бұрын
I can't answer that question, unfortunately. It was too long ago! I believe it was a botched gallon of exterior latex that I got at the hardware store for $9 or $10. It's very imilar to the color of chocolate milk.

OSB will last 10-15 yrs if painted well. I’ve had them last even longer

That's a nice setup. How do you keep the mice & bugs out during the off season?
@UncleBucks 2 жыл бұрын
Mice have not been a problem. There's no where they that they can fit in, and they haven't chewed in anywhere. We never leave food in any deer blinds and I don't isulate walls that create cavities. Bugs, that's a different story. They find their way in. Some of the flies come to life once the heater warms it up. We just put up with them. They don't bite.

Can always get those sticky paper fly traps but here in Manitoba canada come rifle season for white tails it’s mid November ans flies ain’t a problem either

I have trap doors in all my boxblinds

It's certainly a good way to go if you have snow and ice to contend with. I sure appreciate your views and comments.
