I assure you that shooting through the bunched up mesh won't affect you at all. I gave it w whirl the other night when I got my new Matrix. I also used the bag that my old Eastman blind came in... it has backpack straps.
In KS we pulled the mesh up and the many turkeys around our blinds never saw us regardless of what we did inside the blind including drawing, camera work etc....I wasn't comfortable shooting through the mesh and besides, it messed up the visual for the eyes and the camera, pulling the mesh up in the shooting direction had no ill effect.
