I can't start trimming trees and shooting lanes until Aug 15th bc of Ft Hood rules but I can't wait to get things set up exactly the way I want and get my bow set ups ready to go.

Nav looks like it will be a great setup, about how high up are you?

I would probably get a nose bleed that high in the air. You would have to rake up an acre of mesquites and bind them together to get that high on our place in Baylor County.
Good looking set up. I love when you see the perfect spot, like a light from the heavens shining on it.

LOL ... we had a platform up about 35-40 up in a sycamore tree, tallest tree within several hundred yards ... was spooky to hunt out of if the wind was blowing, good 5-6 foot sway.

I photo shopped myself in a tree that high once. I don't fear heights, just the sudden stop at the end of a fall. 
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.
