best way to camo a shooting house
 

This is my newest shooting house I have built and wondering what everyone thought would be the best way to camo it a little more. Thanks for the suggestions.

pine or cedar branches. cornstalks if you are next to a cornfield. camo paint, fabric blind material. lots of choices.

where ya huntin at.ever greens openfeild ya kno, ya wanta paint it same color as everything round you...deer can se str8 lines, so make sure you paint the edges of the blind to make it look "non-str8"
right now looks like u r good fer a sandy area...

I am def. going to use more paint and limbs and branches but was wanted to know how much more paint should be added before the limbs and branches. Sorry I should have stated that in the earlier post.

Also I noticed Walmart sells the leaf material that you can put up and down your ladder on a ladder step. Would this be a good choice to put around the edges?

I'll be honest with you, camo is for us hunters...If you put that in place a couple of weeks the deer won't give it a second look...

I wouldn't stink it up with paint this close to the season...

True. Probably just some some good branches and such. Thanks again for all the input!!

Drap it with camo netting and cut out your openings so you can still roll them up and tie them off.



No paint, only stain to preserve the wood.

Rolls and rolls of the Ultimate Camo tape!!!!!

first off make it black inside and wear black when inside. That is first camo hint. Second, if it is new to area and w/ dewer season starting alot of areas I would break the outline w branches all willy nilly on the sharp curves. You could paint it pink the deer won't know.

I agree!
That's funny because it reminds me of my cousins hunting property, My cousin bought an old farm house that hadn't been lived in for 20 years or more.
Long story short ,he hunted out of an Outhouse in the back yard and took many deer just sitting inside it( it was a double seater!,he just cut a shooting window in the door!)

Looks great now, why change it. If you have to wear orange wile inside it, it may as well be orange. At least no one will shoot at you. The deer don't care what color it is and will know it's there anyway, so you're only hiding it from people right? I have taken so many deer where it is legal to do so, from bright colored pickups that were running so I could stay warm that I don't worry too much about the color as long as other hunters can see me. Some of the biggest bucks I have killed I have stepped out of a running pickup to shoot while sitting in a field somewhere. Since it's perfectly legal to drive around with a loaded and ready gun in Missouri a truck is by far the locals favorite blind. But you have to be off the roadway and out of the truck to take the shot. Anyway nice blind, I have several that look about the same that work fine without camo. Just watch the noise, scent, and visible movement in front of the window. Having the interior the same color as what you wear is a good idea though.

This is the best idea, in my opinion. Buy a small roll of the lefy netting from somewhere like Cabelas and you'd be set. Then, also as mentonioned, simply treat and staing the naked wood and that shooting house will last forever. Good luck and good shootin'

I do have to totally agree with the posts above that stress that the camo is really more for us hunters than the deer. Leave that house in the woods for a couple weeks and the deer could care less.

There are already all kinds of deer activity around one of our newest shooting house additions,..... no cam required. lol

I covered mine with roofing felt to keep the rain off the wood.The deer sleep under it.

Camo panneling. Just tack it on to the outside walls and cut out your window holes.

Just did mine with camo burlap. Stapled in on with gun..

dude ive been hunting all my life just paint it a dark green y lose any sleep the animals will get used 2 it

Paint pictures of does wearing sexy outfits all over it. The bucks will come running from miles around. LOL

Whats the best way to camo a shooting house?.......With this!
