Permanent elevated blind/shooting house recommendations.

Have you ever looked at getting a non-running school bus? I have one set up and so does my bil. They work great if you have the space.

That would definitely take care of any space issues. He could bring the whole famn damily.

Is it elevated so you can shoot out the windows?
There is a guy over by Medford Ok that got busted by the GW for road hunting from his station wagon. GW lives in Medford.
He has that station wagon on a 20 tower blind in a field to hunt from now.
I've posted a picture of it on here in the past but don't have it in my library now. I need to get back over there during deer season and find it again to get another pic as well as the guy that has a blue porta-pottie for an elevated deer blind.

One suggestion I have about the bus option is to flip a few windows to open up instead of down. I even mounted a shelf to hold a gun rest. Put a mattress in for the mid morning nap. We took out most of the seats so it really opens it up. The possibilities are endless for customization.

Sorry that looks a lot bigger/better on my desktop. Thats a school bus tree stand in the middle.

I don't know about you squares, but I'm sold.

I tend more to smaller and more concealable/less inconspicuous stands, but you do you, Boo Boo.

I’ve got two neighbors that ride the short bus. Does that count? While I technically do have the space, I do think a non bus sized blind is more applicable in this scenario. I do have another location that is prime for an old auto blind though. Thanks for the idea

Here’s a less expensive elevated blind. I wanted one in

another area but did not want to shell out another $3k for another Muddy blind. The tower was about $300. I floored it with 3/4” thick rubber stall mats cut to fit. I already had the ground blind. Put the tower together last December. Took about 3-4 weeks for the critters to get used to it and ignore it. Put the ground blind on it today so they can now get used to that before season opens.

Is that just a regular ground blind? I have always thought about doing that (I have several) but never have. I saw in Academy in Austin once they sold towers for blinds but have not seem them here in OK.
