This is the view from my "stand"...
He even said "hello"...
Saw a very large 12-point about 2 years ago from my stand,
couldn't shoot it... didn't have the camera at the time.
My "stand" is about 10 foot high and 16'x20'...
it's my back deck!
Pat baits them every year with her garden.
Kind'a funny... I hunting a lot until I stopped about 15 years ago.. it was part of my job. I was the design engineer for a hunting products company. Stands was our #1 product.

We have those darn things in our back yard too.......
I love the "off the back deck pics". We are building a new home smack on top of our most productive deer stand (we pulled the stand first). I expect we will share the backyard as many of you are doing once the activity normalizes.
Great photos!

Great pics guys and I see some spots I'd love to try at your places, even for turkey.
I'm not much of a hardcore deer hunter lately, but have killed a few in the past 20 years and some from right here, my own deck. This first pic is what we see out of our dining room table/great room sliding door onto the deck. Pictured is my new main deck gun, the bolt Ruger 7-22 in .22 lr and Nikon 3 x 9 x 40 scope.
Four coyotes have fallen from the same "blind" to my open-sighted 1917 .303 British SMLE, two this past summer. You have to always be cognizant of where the goats might be when targeting a crow etc. as they are always curious about gunfire and investigate. The other goat is roan/reddish brown colored.

I can't shoot any deer in the yard.. it would make Pat and Buffy(dog) very upset! All the deer are their pets...
Buffy and her friend she's had since it was a fawn...
