Thanks for the input. I can't leave the blind out in the field because the cows will surely stomp it to death. I will give it a try this spring and see what happens. This old tom will be ahuge one this spring; I've been after him for two years already. I came close one time during a thunderstorm. I managed to pull him away from his hens, but he hung up 75 yards away in a open pasture. This blind should add a new dimension to my turkey hunting.
