Title: Brush lock-on stand
Post by: GregB on August 30, 2009, 12:51:58 pm

I thought some of you might be interested in a little project I'm working on to provide cover for a tree stand I'm going to be hunting from some this fall. The tree I need to put it in has very little cover after the leaves fall. I wanted to carry some cover up attached to the stand. I'm using 1/2" pvc attached to my stand with hose clamps and wire-ties. I've woven some cane into fencing attached to the pvc. I'll be hanging camo netting and brush from this. I have it far enough out where I can rotate my bow without hitting any of the cover. :)

That is cool, Greg and it solves a problem we all run into after leaf fall.

Greg, looks like it should work good. Good luck and break in that new snake bow.     Kenneth

Thanks Kenneth, the snake bow is shooting and holding up great...just have to do my part! ;) I got the stand hung yesterday and added some brush underneath it...exceeding my expectations, got really good cover except behind off my right shoulder I'll have to be careful, they'll be coming off higher ground from that direction.

DUDE!!!  Use that cane for arrows, not for your brush!!!  Any stick will work for brushing in your stand, but good cane....well....that's valuable!

I'm using that cane for the same reason it makes a good arrow...light weight yet strong! These were large for arrows anyway, and didn't need them for fishing poles... ;D
