I do both, On my Father-in-laws land our stands are built and have beenin the same spotsfor about 12 years now. Wecheck them every year and sometimes need to rebuild parts of them so they are safe. On the other places I hunt I use portable stands.I move them around so it would not be too effective to keep building them.

i haven't built any personally but i have hunted out of some. i plan on trying to make some of my own. but right now i only hunt from portables.

I like hunting from the Tree houses. You have more room to move, its quieter and more comfortable. I also think you can keep yourself hidden better in a home made wooden stand.

I limit myself to only using ground blinds,climbing stands,ladder stands,and a few permanent stands that we built.Oh yeah, i mostly still-hunt.The only thing i don't have is a hang-on.

WOODEN ONES..WAAAAAAAAAAAAYY BACK in the day. Todays climbers offer too much mobility........You cant build no more on state land.....Damned Do-Gooders.....I ONLY HUNT STATE LAND

i build my own and i bought a couple. a good thing about building your own is that you can make it as big as you want and you can cuztomize it anyway you want. i have one with walls and a roof, basically like a blind in the tree and it works real nice, keeps me out of the elements=more time in the woods. just one thing make sure u use pressure treated lumber, last longer
