RE: bowhunting ground blinds
Wow, that's a prehistoric buck right there! The only experience I've had in a ground blind is during the spring turkey hunts. I saw plenty of deer, and they didnt' like it one bit. They never outright ran from me, but sure as hell knew something was there. For the record though, scent was probably pretty bad. It was sold as a stinky turkey blind, and never treated.
