I'm looking to get a few tower stands. I've seen The Blynd and Texas Hunting Products versions and they seem pretty good for the money, under $1000 each shipped to Kansas. What do you think? Thanks.

Find some scafollding, mine is about 24 feet high, 8' x 8'to the top of the roof. I have under 100, invested.

I say have it built locally, it will save you on shipping etc. Also, avoid fiberglass stands. They tend to break down in the elements quicker than metal stands.

If I was to build tower stands I would get free telephone poles that the utility companies get rid of and bury these and attach an enclosed platform to them. Rent an auger and go to town.

Golfcat, I have the Blynd and am well satisfied with it!

I like the good old fashioned wood shooting house..gets character as it gets older .
