Quick Tour Inside My Portable Deer Blind / Ameristep Insulated Deer Blind / Michigan Deer Hunting

Beautiful Thompson Center Encore Charlie! Good Luck!

Good to see a fellow encore hunter. 209x50 is my choice. Never pulled the hammer back and not taken the buck. I used to hunt iron river area near the paint river.

I enjoyed watching your video I hunted the upper Peninsula for 20 years in a camp just outside of Crystal Falls on the Michigamme Reservoir. I am definitely looking at putting a pop-up blind on top of an elevated platform and I had the exact same thoughts that you had about why the ice fishing hub companies don’t manufacture one of their insulated houses in camouflage that would be so much nicer for retaining heat and I think it would be a big sales item and versatile because you could use it on the ice as well. I’m really surprised that you cannot find one of those manufactured yet buy Eskimo or clam or any of the big three. It makes me want to wait and see if one does actually take the step in that direction.. I don’t need a hub with 360° of windows when I’m generally hunting One Direction. But just wanted to let you know I was thinking the exact same thing when you mentioned it in your video.

That's a beautiful set up, Charley! Sure beats the old days when we would use slabs from a burnt out stump to make a ground blind and use a log to sit on!

@@mikepatton9537 hell ya or the days of the damn wrap around chain seats

[@JustinNottingham]

I use a similar set up, I put a Harbor Freight moving blanket down on the ground to help hold in some heat and gives you a clean foor.

[@CharleyThePlumber]

@@JustinNottingham great idea on the blanket

Seems like camping more than hunting ! Bet you the girls scouts have a badge for that ! LOL, thanks for sharing CTP !

[@davidcarew2146]

Hey Charley! I enjoy your videos. Just a heads up. You are required to wear hunter orange even in your blind. Never know who is watching!

[@thalleshoward3962]

Looks homey. How do you like your rifle. Looks like a Ruger no1.

[@dwaynelevandowski6003]

Damn, that's one squeaky chair.

[@CharleyThePlumber]

Yes I will have a new chair next year lol

Sounds like someone needs to invest in a QUIET seat.
