This is How we did it.













Wooled it up a Bit:



Spring Loaded the 19 Lids


Added a Air Pump to keep a kill hole open when everything else freezes:


Put in a Air control Valve we can ajust the air that sets under the stairs.


And that's How We Did It!

We can hunt up to 19 Hunters safely and comfortably:


And as far as flaring. We've never ever had a problem with it.


We run over 20 Dozen Full Body Decoys and almost that many sleepers and Floaters. Here is a small view of the Spread we run cause we just cant get a wide enough angle of a lense to show the whole set up from th e Ground.


Our Kill's this year have been astronomical and we've taken 14 bands for the year. We are lucky to be in a Loafing area on the flyway here.


And Even got a visit from this fella a couple days ago:


Here is a rough video of what it looks like when the lids fly open:
