I was thinking about getting the wife out in the turkey woods for the first time this year. I think that the only way this will be possible is with the use of a blind. I was wondering what everyones thoughts were about using them for turkey hunting. I never have used them before and was wondering if this will affect the birds in any way. Thanks.

Iuse one and if you just put it on the side of the woods they dont even relize its there most of the time but id suggest decoys to get there eyes of of were the calling is coming from just my opinion.

Decoys, definately. I think the wife can bring along her garden shear for some natural cover to add. I'll let you know how it goes.

good luck maybe your wife will relizewhy you like hunting so much. and pissibly maybe she will like it andyou both can enjoy hutning and she wont get on your case.

Blinds work good and use decoys. I always use decoys any way it just helps with any hunt using blind or not. It would be the best way for her and shewill like it a lot better. Have that a book along.

I've taken the wife (a non-hunter) out several times and bring a pop-up blind for her. The Double Bull T-5 has plenty of room and she can read, nap, or watch. Turks are not threatened by a blind - great for sharing the experience!

I use a blind myself at times. Means you can stretch and snooze and move without fear of being seen. However, spend a lot of time outside one too. I think to introduce her to it would be great to use the blind! THen that is me! [8D]
