Best packable blind?

Best packable blind?
I think I'm in the market for a hunting blind. I'd like one that is actually easy to carry in, set up and pack back up, but not too much $$$$
It doesn't have to be huge, but perhaps big enough for me to actually move around in with a bow and have maybe a youngster with me.
Any suggestions?

I don't know what brand Bass Pro Shops had after Christmas sale. But one of my employees bought a pop up blind for 49.00 dollars it's big enough for two men... He brought it to one of the job sites and set it up on 10 seconds, and it broke down the same way... If I was looking into a cheap blind, I would look into Bass Pro Shops... I am certainly not a Bass Pro shop advocate, but if they have more, what a deal....

I don't know if this http://www.ameristep.com/blinds/doghousetsc.html is the best or not but it seems to work pretty good for me. Some of the features I like are the shoot thru mesh windows, zip in floor, and its large enough to bow shoot from. The TSC model is slightly larger than the regular Doghouse. I've hunted in it with my son and theres plenty of room. I sit towards the back where my draw arm will touch the back of the blind and it leaves good space to shoot the bow. It pretty much pops open to set up. Taking it down is pretty easy once you figure out how to do it. Just don't read the instructions. It fits into its own backpack and is pretty easy to pack. I've carried it pretty far with no trouble. I really like the floor when you leave it out on site. My buddies blinds don't have floors so the first thing they always do when they get to their blinds is check inside for varmints.

Look on Ebay for the Eastman OutfittersCarbon Venture with the Safari System. Best blind I have ever used for the price. You should be able to get one for between $80-$100 shipped. Beware though, make sure you get the hub style like the Double Bulls, not the pop up kind with the spring steel hoops.

I have an Ameristep Outhouse and it is very packable and lightweight.It is a metal hoop blind. They come paked in a backpack when it is in there it is folded flat about 3-4" thick. Very easy to get around with and I think I paid $45.00 for it.
