dbHunterNY Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 welded wire also makes great round bale blinds. i should look into the lime. PITA getting a truck load only to transfer it to something else and get it back into hunting plots that only have hilly atv trails to get to. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We made a few out in Kansas years ago that worked awesome. Deer pay no attention to those things. What are you using for the grass? Actual hay or they imitation stuff you can buy in rolls or whatever. I haven't made up my mind on which way to go with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbHunterNY Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 What she said. Way easier t9 handle and cut to length for windows. Zip tie similar color camo burlap for Windows on top end and use small bungies on bottom to keep it closed in wind. 2x4 base with sealer so it doesn't rot with ground contact. Anchor down from inside with rebar. Weld fender washers to rebar end and then use screws through that into board base to hold in place. Before straw mats wrap wire cage in multiple layers of black painter plastic. If you drill holes in board base angled through each corner you can use rebar dual purpose as lifting handles.Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
