I have used them a few times for geese and they work just fine, i recently bought a Finisher blind and that is way way better.

I use them and it seems to work alright. The one I used was made by just taking the biggest shell you could buy. ( I think it was super mag but im not sure) and attacthing it to a conduit frame. It's pretty much the same design as a boughten one.The shell is still big enough to cover your whole upper body and a small part of your legs, but a bit smaller than the store-bought brands are. I read somewhere that a goose's size perseption is very poor, so they have a hard time distinguishing how big or small something really is, and thats supposedly 1 of the reasons the chairs dont stand out as much as they do to humans.

well, right now all we are using is a couple camo blankets and we throw some dirt and straw on em to break em up even more. and we had a hard time gettin them to come into range. they would come in but then flare jus out of reach. so jus tryin to think if a goose blind would work. i can get a hold of one for 70 bucks. and i would love to have a final approach blind or somthing along that line but i am currently in college and do not have alot of money[:@] the college takes it all. but the biggest thing is that if i set up for ducks and geese is the blind gonna scare the geese?

For about $120 you can get a layout blind, and you will be much happier.
