Depending on where you hunt and the time of year I will say a an Amerstep pop blind just sucks.
they have no water proof flaps over the zippers which will get water in them from melting snow and freeze up and unusable.
I contacted them and was told they were to be put up every morning and taken down every night at the end of the hunt, not designed to be left out here in Michigan during deer firearm season.
I only have one left that I got some rubberized camo material and made flaps over all the zippers to make the water run off.
I have set up in the early afternoon and had deer come to stare at the blind and keep getting closer because they wanted to know what that thing was. Of course they were all does and button bucks but were deer.
