same-day set up
 

do same-day set up work? i read and read about portable ground blinds ( DB )for same-day set up and its mostly 50/50. some say yes and some say no. do they work for you?

RE: same-day set up
 

Yes, yes, and YES! Some of my most memorable hunts came from carrying my climber and putting it up in a new spot .... love it

What are you hunting?

RE: same-day set up
 

whitetails. i hunt urban areas so the deer aren't to jumpy. i think it would work just looking for some in put

i was talking about blinds, but thanks for the help

RE: same-day set up
 

I think in an urban area a pop-up could work very well for you. The deer shouldn't be too "people shy". I would recommend brushing the blind in very well. Deer don't like new surprises in their habitat so use a lot of brush and make it look as natural as possible.

Honestly, for the best results you need to set it up, cover with branches and try to break it up a little bit. You can do whatever you want to do, but that seems to work the best. Turkeys seem to be oblivious to the change in surroundings.



Spell check Preach :D

Heck yes. Took my son out on a late afternoon hunt and threw up a blind IN AN OPEN CUT CORN FIELD. We had deer all over us.

i know that YOU most brush it in. the area is about half hillside too. would it be hard to hunt this with the matrix? you cant but a treestand on the hillsides our people will see you and call the cops [:@]

RE: same-day set up
 

Be a little more clear here. Are you hunting somewhere you have permission? Back to the question though, obviously if it is a steep hillside a blind isn't going to work very well. I still think you should get a treestand. I know you said you are a big guy but look at the Summit Goliath.
