RE: pop up blinds?
 

i HAVE THREE POP UP BLINDS AND HAVE USED
THEM VERY SUCCESSFULLLY FOR BOTH DEER AND TURKEY.
Through trial and error over the years this is what i]
have learned:
1. STay away from blinds made out of raincoat type
material as they tend to reflect light. I had one that
and the turkeys wouldnt come within 60 yards of it and
the deer were always very nervous.
2. Break up the sharpline outline of the windows
by sewing strips of cloth along its edges. This gives
the opening a more natural appearance. Also make sure
you keep the inside of the blind as dark as possible
by only opening one or two windows. I have also had
better luck since i attached camo netting to the windows.
I think deer and turkey tend to spook more often by the
window effects than by the blind as a whole.
3. Place a couple of branches on top of the blind to
help blend it in.
Last year I killed two big gobblers within 20 yards of
my blind and missed another one that came within 5ft on
my back side. I thought I heard something behind me and
when I slowly turned my head the old boy was looking me
right in the eye. Had I had a stool with a swivel top I
may have got him.
To sum it all up. There are alot of great blinds out there.
Get one thats quiet, doesnt reflect light, roomy enough
to turn 360 degrees, and has a good camo pattern. Making
it look as natural as possible is the key.

I have 5 tents blinds. I bowhunt exclusively and can give a couple of words of advice. I have 2 tents that I can't draw in because my draw length is to long (29"). So be careful, I am fixing to purchase a couple of Double Bull's, from experience these are the best. Make sure you get lined blinds because you can be silhouted in one's that aren't.

I have the "outhouse"ground blind and it's made of the "raincoat material"when the sun hit it,it lit up like a Christmas tree.A few cans of Wal-mart camo paint fixed that.Other than that it's not bad to hunt out of.Oh and cheap!

Hunting is not a sport,it's a lifestyle.
