sweet set up Looked a bit like the Trans-pecos

Thats an awesome view you have there.

We are south of Ozona you are looking at a mesuite flat with a dry creekbed at the bottem of pic.there is another creek bed to the right with high cliffes about 200 yds to the far right.the mesquites are aout 4' tall alltough they dont look like it here.

Smart way to anchor it down...its sure not going anywhere!!!

To much rock to anchor any other way and dont have to worry about walking into down guys in the dark. as of yet we have not had a stand fall

hey Tim did you build the stairs?

I like the metal sides on your new home lol.

Looks good and sturdy. What kind of windows did you use. Store bought or did you make yourself?

Yrs I built every thing. It was hard by my self But I got-it-done I bought the windows for J and L supply in Cross Plains. I look for a coupel months before I orderd them. I did not want any noise. We get a lot of wind I have around $300 in the stand for every thing

DO you have any directions/plans for the stand? Looking to build my own but i can't find plans anywhere.

No plans ciscoot just made as I went. started off with the blind and welded to stand The box is 6'X5' with the porch it is 9'X 5'. layed the ladder out and welded steeps at 7" each step. for the windows i welded 4" bracing at the top and bottem to screw the window to. To get the hight of the window I set in a chair and held a gun at the hight it would be comfortable with. for me it is 40" Iam 6'2". last covered with steel.

West of Bozona??? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmm I hunted, or attempted to hunt in that area last year. It was a plcae run By Patrick Meados. The place Sucked Best of luck to you guys

LOL 7mag no we don't lease from Patrick. We lease from a man that has 30,000 acres ranch. We only have 3000. He has 3 ranches. this ranch is the small one (go figure) this is our 5 year on this lease. We have sean some wall hangers just not at the right time. The lease is south of Ozona on FM 1973
Steve we have several nice deer on our place. some parts you can see 15 to 20 deer at one outing. We are game mang so I am carfull about pulling the trigger.

Thats a sweet looking setup and a even better view!

That looks like a sweet set up.

The truth be told I built the stand for my dad. He gos down the end of December. He is 76 and can got climb a ladder any more. Heck I dont like climing a ladder myself. I look around at stands and windows for about 4 mounths. If your stand is on 67 from Colman to Barnhart I have look at it with glasses. Trying to find whate I like and what I do not. This is what I came up with. You cant see the door but it is a 36" steal door with steal fram. It wount swell. It also has a heater and a office chaires in it.

Tom this is what I was talking about

Looks sweet! Good lookin area.

Looks great, that is a bunch of area to watch.
