I usually have it set up to only shoot out of 1 window. I will use the big one to shoot out and usually open the smaller ones or even the smaller ones partially open to see out the sides. I don't like too much light from the sides because the darker I can keep it inside the less can be seen in. I also bought some camo cloth and am going to stitch it to the inside from about half-way up to the top. It seems like the deer can't see in too well when its dark but they don't seem to like the dark hole. I'm going to try the camo and see if it works better.
