This year was the first year I was able to get on a lease and to say it has been amazing would be an understatement. I also understated the amount of work it takes to get feeders, blinds, food plots, and $$ to start from scratch. My good friend is also on the lease. I started by building him a very nice elevated blind which we went all out on with deer view windows, etc. When it came time to build my stand, I was looking for a cheaper option for this year. My main location is a recent clear cut with a creek bottom running a curve. I've always wanted an octagon shaped stand as it always seems I want to look right where the corners of the blind are. This location lends itself very nice to an octagon shaped stand.
A while ago, I purchased a bunch of doors because I was going to build a storage cabinet in my garage with bipass doors. I think I got a lot of 10 off them off craigslist for $20. That never happened and they have been sitting in my garage ever since. I figured the doors would make a good deer blind. They are hollow core so should have some level of insulation.
Here is the progress of making the "Door Blind"
I started by cutting cardboard strips of each of the sizes of doors I had for the best way to lay them out.
