Just wanted to share some pics of my first attempt of building a shooting house. I got the plans from a link off the TN Deer talk forum. I made some slight changes to it, like putting tin over the corners instead of wood, letting the windows open down instead of up and putting up some "gutters" above the windows. Still not done with it, got some minor things I want to do to it. ![[Linked Image]](http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l190/Cleburne/100_1259.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l190/Cleburne/100_1260.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l190/Cleburne/100_1261.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l190/Cleburne/100_1274.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i96.photobucket.com/albums/l190/Cleburne/100_1266.jpg) My green/hunting field.

Real nice, but I'd change the window setup. You've got to leave the windows open to hunt. I'd put in some glass windows that way you can leave the windows closed. A shooting house you can close up and a little buddy heater makes things mighty comfy. Closed windows help control your scent a lot better also. http://www.deerviewwindows.com/index.php

Have to agree with Crow Hunter. I have a shooting house with flip up Plexi-glass windows and it sure makes it nice to be able to leave them closed while hunting to keep out the wind.
Those who must raise their voice to get their point across are generally not intelligent enough to do so in any other way.

Around $700, all the lumber is treated. That price includes everything(nails, screws, hinges and paint) but the shingles and tin.

Hey, I like it , very much like one I sat in this past Jan. in AL, and mine had drop windows with a propane heater.
Unfortunaly the rut in AL was raining, tornados and warm.
Can't wait till next year.

If I was going to shoot a house, I'd shoot one somebody else built..........

Nice job, Cleburne. Some day I hope to have some acreage where I can build and use something like that.
Keep your gun-hand ready and your eyes peeled.
