i saw the mojo dove tree for $60 and figured i could make my own alot cheaper. that's how i got the idea.



i can't wait til September first
31 more days!!!!!

Looks good. Let us know how it works.

Right when I saw the post oaks I knew it was college station. Where do you hunt, private or public?

Nice work, I bet it works great.

lol i need to change that. i hunt private but might give public a shot this year but probably not.

LOL... I did the same thing last year.



Made it where it could break down and put in a back pack. Worked pretty good.

you could send a man to the moon with pvc!!!!

Now, does that stay assembled or can you rig it once on site?

Looks good by the way, and has just given me a fun project to work on.

I'm gonna have to try that...

looks good to me, and I'm sure it will work. I made a telephone wire for them to perch on years ago. worked great, just gotta get it where they can see it

Thats a good one Dave.

And the dove tree looks good

the branches are glued together and so is the main pvc pipe. so i disassembled where you have 4 branches and the main pvc pipe. then I'll put it together when i get out there.

that looks really good i dont know why i never thought of that myself!! i do ac work and mess with pvc everyday, doh!! how are you getting it to stick in the ground?

Luv it , great job pig out

One question though; was it cheaper to make or buy?

That's like 25 bucks worth of PVC and maybe 10 bucks worth of paint...I'd say cheaper to make.

Don't they retail for around 65?

yes it cost $60 @ cabelas and i built mine for $20!!!!

how are yall getting them to stand? sticking it in the ground or what?

Mine slips over the mojo dove pole.

looks like 3/4 for the main and 1/2 for the branches? how tall is yours?

30 days and counting

Ok.....do these dove trees REALLY work?

it's 1 for main and 1/2 for the branches. it's around 8 ft. to get it to stay in the ground i used a one inch adapter attached to about another foot of pvc pipe. i would beat that into the ground then i would put the dove tree in it. I'm gonna go get so rebar pretty soon and start using that just in case the grounds to hard out in the field.

Yes

ok so i just built me one this morning things were slow. so what i did was this. took 1 inch for the "trunk" and 1/2 for the branches. i made it to separate into about 2' pieces so itll fit in a bag. the branches are all glued together and the t's for them to attach to tree are glued to the 1" to get mine to stay up i took a 1 1/4 inch 4way and drilled an 1 1/8 hole through. slide my 1" main therough and screwed to stay in place. tapered the end with a sawzall and the 4 way will have 2' pieces of 1 1/4 to give stability. 30 bucks out the door. ill be painting it later
