I found one that I use for turkey and coyote hunting. If folds up like one of those lawn chairs and fits in a bag. Purchased it at Scheels for $100. It's quite comfortable to sit in and has plenty of room for even two people. But can't for the life of me remember the name of the manufacturer.

I purchased a Ground Max Eclipse from Gander Mtn.for $100.It broke the 3rd time i opened it, I returned it. and the bow holder would not hold my allegiance. (too heavy)

.

So i wouldnt reccommend that particular model. It was a great designother than my issues.

In the pastI tried several different stands that were marginal to say the least, I saved my money and bought a bouble bull about seven years ago and haven't had the need to look for any more stands. I am sure there are some better pop ups out there today but back then they were not even close to the DB's....In my experience the DB is hard to beat but I haven't tried any of the newer stands as of lately....Good luck!!!

I bought this blind last year after checking out a bunch of different models, but not wanting to break the bank on a Double Bull.

It offers 360 degree shooting and veiwing and uses magnets to hold up the blackout interior so you can easily raise and lower window areas without making noise. I wish I had this blind on my turkey hunt last year because if I had we would have gotten the kill on film. As it was the bird came in behind us and I was only able to get one window open to shoot through so the camera man couldn't get the bird on film.

This blind has a lot of bang for the buck.
