Need to get a good cheap turkey hunting blind??
I am not interested in trying to bowhunt turkeys myself yet but my cousin is getting ready to purchase everything for him to do it himself. He wants a blind big enough for two people because he intends on putting everything on video.
He was looking into the ameristep two man scissor chair blind, but he is afraid of not having enough room to draw his bow? He dont want to spend the money on an expensive blind anything will work up to $150 bucks???
Any good suggestions will be appreciated!! Thanks!!!

I bought the one that was on sale for $59.Oddly enough, it's bigger than the one that's on sale for $79.
Next time, check the dimensions, not the price.

I've seen them all and strongly believe that the Ground Max Escape is the best blind under $350. I bought mine at Gander Mountain for $99. I'll likely add another to the stable soon. I've also got an Ameristep Brickhouse that works great and has seen 3 season of use on it. They don't make those anymore but if you can find one on ebay that's another great option.

i own a doghouse blind. they work great for shotgun but i found it to small for shooting a bow. i was just at cabelas yesterday and was looking at the blinds they have. i think it was the cabelas full draw 5 i could be wrong on the name but it was a cabelas brand. looked real big $159. hub style i believe. sold out on the web site.
