I hunt out of an old broke down gravity wagon all the time. This reminds me that I need to replace the flooring I put in it. Starting to squeak.
Got $3,500 laying around?!?

I don't know, i don't know of to many tree stumps that are 5' across and over 6' tall. That would stick out like a sore thumb unless you where hunting in the redwood forrest.
I agree with Joe. This almost has to smell of plastic. Will have to say it looks pretty neat until you get to the price.

I think Hank Tucker outdoors should buy one and let the TOO brothers do some test and tune with it! :smiley_coolpeace:
I guarantee you i could hide just as well in my camo ford aspire as i could in a giant tree stump. As long as it doesnt move and doesnt smell, the deer will get used to it.

Can't wait till they come up with a real looking deer blind you crawl in and can go mount a doe of your choice! Lol
If they'll eat from plastic feeders, they'll get used to this. It won't wreak forever either. And who's to say plastic is a smell they find dangerous?

It's not really dangerous.. But there is a difference between a plastic drum, a nylon blind, and a 300 pound hunk of plastic big enough for all the keebler elves.. It's thicker walled so it will take longer for the chemicals to evaporate out of the plastic. I bet it will have that "New blind" smell for a good while.. The real thing is, this sucker isn't portable. So really it is designed to be a stationary fixture.. One that deer will have to get accustomed to.. We'll hell.. If that's the case, it doesn't need to look like a tree at all.. You could put a 6x5 metal storage shed there for 350 bucks and the deer would get accustomed to it..
You could buy 10 of these for that price and spray paint them.. Put a cot in it.. Some shelves for magazines, hell, even a full lazy boy recliner. lol
Or
1 of these
Yessir. Buy a decent amount of lumber for $3500. Metal will be noisy on the inside. Might as well build some out of lumber to keep the doors quiet. Might have to chase more bugs out, but it would work. Or as someone else suggested using portojohns. Bus stops? Used truck caps on a platform for a roof with some plywood sides? Countless ways to build a blind in my opinion. I will admit though, the one in this post is pretty cool. I think I am going to start producing my tree house in mass production. Ship them out all over the country. If you are going to hunt in comfort, you might as well stay at the Hilton. That reminds me, I need to get the siding done on this thing.

Id be more afraid of one tresspasser saying to the other just after he dropped his gun.."Better see if my gun is still on"...Other trespasser.."Yeah..you better..See if you can hit that stump over there"

I saw some of those things first hand in Harrisburg this year. Pretty friggin cool actually. No way in hell I'd ever spend that kind of money but it is a cool concept.

Woodbury has like 8 of them sitting outside of the store in Coshocton. Wonder how fast they will move any of those.
