Default Groundblind whitetail tricks/tips

Iwant to master bowhunting whitetails out of a ground blind. Looks like the easiest way to film and most exciting and in your face type of hunting. I know the importance of brushing in etc and that same day setups are hard to pull off. I have thought of putting up my blind in preseason, brushing a pocket around the blind, and then removing the blind. This way when it comes time to hunt, I have this little brush pocket that the deer have already been used to seeing, and all I do is slip my blind into the pocket. I could have brush pockets setups all over the woods for different wind setups. I would just keep the window area free of sticks and actually use some decent sized sticks/brush so there is some longgevity to these pockets. This way, I just have a little maintenance to keep these pockets working.
What do you think? Any successful portable groundblinders advise that the Double Bull videos haven't covered would be appreciated.

Edit: I have two DB's and plan on getting two of these ASAT blinds so that Sarah and I can each have two. I have hunted turkeys a lot out of blinds and have had some close encounters with deer too. I just want to master it. Ground blind hunting is still in it's baby stages(portable blinds) compared to treestands, so I know there is a lot to learn.
