I have been reading this forum for awhile but actually haven't posted until now. I prefer to hunt out of a treestand but with my climber I am limited only to certain trees. To hunt in a certain area I am forced to use my ground blind. The problem I have been having for bowhunting is that the deer get nervous when seeing the ground blind and won't come close enough for a shot. I have heard before that they don't like them and that you should brush in your blind. I would do that but I am afraid to leave my blind there permanently to brush it in because it might get stolen. When I get there to hunt I don't want to take the time or make the noise to cut branches to brush it in. Does anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions? This is only my third year dear hunting and I am learning more each year.
