Hunting from forgotten blinds

all fun and games till the home owner shows up

The property I hunt for deer has a few old outbuildings immediately adjacent to one of the fields where we hunt. The loft with a window is a decent spot, particularly when it gets wet out.

On my family property in Iowa, one of the most productive blinds is an old grain bin with windows cut in it. Right on the edge of an oak bush with corn fields behind it and to the side. a grass hill with scattered oaks to the front that gives way to a CRP field. Many deer have been taken from that blind, including a 165 inch typical buck. Too bad it’s so expensive to hunt there as a nine resident.

Not a bad place to be first thing in the morning!
Seems like whenever I climb the tree stand and get settle in, I have to come back down to take care of business! lol
