tree stand skirt

i been using that camo burlap but it just dont hold up ,any one found anything better ??

That's all I've ever used. I normally get a season out of it, so it's good enough for me. If there is something better for a comparable price, I'd try it though.

Try this on the camo skirt

I bought one at Dicks last year. Ties on along the rails and has storage pouches on the inside. Think it was less than $30.

chicken wire or zip ties and Oak branches. only done it on duck blinds. certainly looks better than anything 2d though.

I cut skirts from an old pool tarp. Get cheap grommet kits from harbor freight or northern tool. attach them to the stand with plastic zip ties

if you have a military surplus anywhere close to you,they usually have good camo netting

I went to some fabric store one day a few years back. I was looking for a back drop material for photos on my website. I found a material that has a light leathery suede feel. its a tan and black color with broken patterns through out it..it is about 4 foot wide and they had it on clearance with about 30 feet on the roll for like 25 bucks...it was enough to cover two 2 man stands. It blends in very well once the leaves drop.

Its lasted three years and still strong. I zip tied it to the rails. Deer dont seem to mind it. I left it out all year last 2 seasons..one stand had new burlap on it and I laid this over the burlap. The burlap tore last year and is rotted off this year... I should just cut the ties and remove it each year...

point is keep an open mind and dont be scared to go in a fabric store...LOL but I shop at the make-up counter for some fish painting supplies so... i done lost my man card a time or two :D
