I'm planing on buying two before the upcoming season. They will be a Cabelas Exclusive Predator Den Blind and an Ameristep Doghouse. The nicer of the two ( the Den Blind) will be to hunt with my Father in Law (won't use treestands) this year. The other one will be set up in a spot that I can't hang a stand in due to no big trees being near.

I just recently bought a Primos Groundmax Eclipse blind from Cabelas on sale for $99.99. It sets up easily and is big enough to fit 2 people comfortably.

I have a Double Bull and I do recommend it but depends on your budget.

I went cheap and bought a trekker t-100!

I am too tall for this blind not standing up but for my draw length. My arm hits the back wall! Anyone have a good suggestion as to how I can remedy that? Or am I looking at a gun blind?!

I've tried several different blinds over the years. 2 years ago I bought the Groundmax Eclipse (in predator camo) and absolutely love it. The hubs are solid, easy setup/take down. For the money, I would highly recommend....

I have the Double Bull T2 now...
Had the Double Bull DarkHorse, but just a bit too big for my needs.

If I had it to do all over again....I'd ;ikely buy the ASAT quickie blind for $250.

I bought a DB Matris in 2005 and it's been really solid. No issues.

I think blinds fit into two categories:

1. Disposable, 2-3yr models....
2. Blinds that'll last you SEVERAL years of hard use.

Mine fits the latter bill.

People can talk about price all they want to.....but most of these same people have no problems spending $200-4$400 more for a Bowtech.......when a Bear is the alternative.

It's either a great blind (or bow) or it isn't.....cost notwithstanding.

Good luck with your choice.
