Makings of a 100% natural blind
Permalink  
 


I stumbled across this cave of vines last week. It is about 10' across and 6 1/2' high to the top of the dead tree. It's in a small clearing on private property. I hollowed it out a bit and draged some more vines across the front. I just need to build up the front higher and I'll be done. It is a little tough to see the scale without a someone standing in it. This piece of land does produce a lot of birds, but they won't know what hit 'em.

Hi Mike,

Depending on you're height (5' 7" to 6' 0") it looks like the other 3 sides could be about as high as the highest point so far. What is that, a tree limb or a fence post being used for support? I can see that you are off to a good start, those Jersey crows better look out!

Bob,

It's what is left of a broken tree. All the vines where on it shaped like a bowl. Mother nature did most of the work for me.

Mike,

If it's a good area then you have yourself a good blind for many years to come.

Bob,

It's a great little 90 acres I use for deer and turkey. Fox and the ocassional coyote too, and the bear that eluded me last year. Crows are there in small bunches, and when I take them out, more move right in. A few guys use the property, but not for crows.

Mike

Shane,

As soon as I saw this, it was screaming turn me into a blind. It"s not easy to see, the lower front are vines pulled around. When I make it higher, I'll attach it to a beefy branch on the right and I will have a gate.

Mike

I always try to make blindes out of natural foiliage if i can, looks more natural and you dont have to drag it with and and carry it out when you're done. I always just try to make all the side equal height and tall enough where it completely covers me when I sit on my bucket.
