    Perfect platform height for bow blind?

    Looking to build a new platform for pop up blind my feeder is about 15-20 yards away. this is going to be a bow only spot. What do yall think is the perfect height for my platform? Thinking 5 feet myself just wondering what the brain trust thinks.

    "Perfect" has many variables. 5-6' up has worked well for me.

      Wind direction, terrain, cover, direction animals come in...etc.

              Maybe this will help. Red is where I am thinking of putting it and the blak outline is my feeder pen.

                      What about size? I was thinking about 6 ft x 6 ft. Brother thinks just do 8 x 8.

                        I built all of mine 6' off the ground. Deer seem to be real comfortable with that and dont pay it much attention. Good looking spot!

                          This is one I use in Kansas.
                          7' tall, 5' X 5' Platform. Works very well...

                            I'm hoping it turns out to be a good spot. This will be first season I hunt it. There are more tracks in this area than any other place on ranch. Put out corn and camera. Within three days I had wt deer, mule deer, pigs, and coons on film.
