I have the doghouse blind and I have used it for deer hunting. The deer have to get used to it. It makes them uneasy for a couple of days. The shoot through windows only work for bow you are supposed to take them out to shoot through the window with a gun. I have not used it for turkey hunting because this is my first year hunting turkey. It comes with a pouch that it folds into and has straps for carying it on your back. It is fairly light weight and easy to carry. Hope this helps.
