Looks like you are ready. Don't have any pictures of my set up, as I got it finished late due to all the rain we have had up at my property. The creek crossing had washed out and it took a few weekends of tractor work to get a new one built. My stand and feeder are on the other side of the creek and were all grown up with weeds and baby pines. So I don't expect to see much the first couple of weekends, but you never know.

Good luck and again your setup looks great.

Looks like you have some sweet setups out there. Good luck during the season. I don't have anywhere this year to show you setups of, but next year I will.. ;)

Great lookin' setup. Tim!! Good luck this season!

We just got our stands and feeders up earlier this month. We've gotten lots of rain and could not get around on the lease to do it any sooner. It should be an interesting year.

As many of y'all know, my oldest bro-in-law, Ed, unexpectedly passed away this year at the lease. When we were there last time, our son, Ty, came up with a great idea. He wants to put up an honorary blind for Ed. I thought it was a great idea and I know Ed would be proud! Ty likes to video, so it may be a perfect set up for him.

Jay.. this model is by far the best idea for a feeder..I post hole dug 3' and then drove an 8' tpost as far as I could. Then I quick creted it and man is it sturdy. No coons can climb it,,no hogs can knock it over.heck the can rub on it and it dont budge or spill corn..I am very pleased
