Default Goose shell blind

Well I'll try this again. Hello I'm new here and wanted to seek some advice. I'm an avid goose hunter, have been all my life and I am 58 years young.
I use a Final Approach blind and it works OK in some conditions. I can hide my dog and myself and when the geese are willing things work out great. Now understand that conditions have to be right for the blind to not flare smarter birds and you really have to have the right cover to blend into and not project shawdows and stick out to much.

My question to you all is, have any of you ever used or know of anyone who has used the giant goose shell blinds. Now I know they look a little rediculous, but from what I have heard from some that have knowledge say they work OK.

I like the priciple of not needing to hide the blind or blend in because you are totaly conseald and the birds just come on in. I have been told that the birds equate size with distence, meaning the bigger the bird appears the closure they believe they are and actualy start their glide path early. You can lay down inside them, your dog can be in there with you and your out of the wind and inclement weather.

So what can anyone tell me. Sorry about the spelling can't spell check
