I know this has been a thread in the past but I didn't have a digital camera then let alone a pic so I figured I'd start another one. I was out scouting the land tonight and took a pic of the stand my dad and I built in his yard to practice out of. We tore off his old deck and recycled the wood. So here it is. I wondered if anyone else had stands or roofs where they practiced from to get geared up and if so post a pic

When 3D season winds down I will start focusing on shooting the 3D bow and hunting a bit more. A good buddy of mine has a 25' scissor lift that drives from the elevated position.......he also happens to have his own private 15 target 3D course. We drive around the 3D course and shoot from various distances, angles, and heights off the scissor lift. Pretty cool. When I start going there this year, I will get pics to share.

Nice...you even managed to keep the deck attached to the house. Luckily I got married and moved out 7 years ago because I can only imagine the s** my dad was in when my mom came home that day.

p.s. Those look like some pretty sweet bows hanging there as well.

Bearklr....nice looking Shooting Deck....I am very jealous to say the least! [:@]



Greg.....can you shoot your Bow and grill at the same time?
You live pretty close to me,I have a friend that is big into Bow Hunting and lives down by you (Whiteside).

Dang Bob...that's REALLY nice. I even like how you took the extra step to put the fence around the stairs to keep kids and animals from climbing up there. That thing should last a loooong time.

It's not my own private stand.We made itat the club. We also have 40 acres which have various 3-d courses set up in the woods, a large area for shooting arials, a sand trap for broadheads and a 10-100yard field archery area. We takeeverything out of the woods ( but not by this particular stand or targets)in the fall and members are allowed to hunt if they want to. Targets go back up in December, and we have one lighted course for the winter period.

We use it mostly to coon hunt off of, but you can put out a bag target or something for a little bit of an elevation...

i can barley afford a stand to hunt out of much less practice out of
