Anyone ever thought of making a shooting house designed for bow hunting. I have an area that I am going to make a shooting house. It will primarily be for bow hunting. Kids will/can shoot guns out of it but it will be for bow hunting. It will be great for rainy days and swirling winds. Anyone have any ideas they want to share? I did find a shooting house I really liked, Dan Perez has one on his property in IL.
 
Lots of examples on texasbowhunter.com

The key from what I've seen is tall skinny windows.
 
For the last year I have been wanting to build one but haven't settled on an idea. His took me over the edge, I think the idea is perfect for bow hunting. Just haveing a hard time waiting til the season is over to start on it. :)

Alright Jay, Let's book it. :cool:
 
It would be nice to build one that was air tight to contain your scent . It would be ideal for the bottoms that you would be hunting.

those were killer. I would like those with vertical windows to open up then shoot through. I guess I am hung up on the vertical windows.

Yeah the vertical windows would have been better. But the ones in there isnt that bad. You can shoot from sitting or standing. We've got to put up some black background in them. To cover our movement a little.

I sat in one this past sunday. Mainly just killing time. As hard as it was raining i knew nothing would be moveing. But let me tell ya. The rain hitting that tin roof.... that stuff will put you to sleep... :D
