I have 1 I put out for the whole season. Private land. I just blend it in and let it set. And if I decide to move it during the year, then its scented like the surroundings which is a bonus. I've had deer within 10 yards not even know I was there. So I would say you can easily bowhunt from a blind. 1 tip though. If the blind doesn't have a bottom clear all weeds, sticks or whatever else is in there out 1st thing. Slight noises send them running.
