Let me share with you a great way to make a ground blind. I like to use a section of 4x8paint scaffolding which is about 6ft high ... I take a 4x8 piece of 3/4 inch plywood and place on topfor the floor (use 3 two by fours for a floorbrace)... I then tie a tent blind on top of the scaffolding....all in all your about 7ft high ...out of the wind and rain ... if you can find an old piece of scaffolding at a rental store you can buy them for about $50.00 ...and all in all you will have about $150.00 in this set up that you can put up or take down in less then 15 min.

The scaffold idea sounds like it would be good after it's set up, but first you have to lug those heavy things down into the woods [&:]

Early in the season i take a pair of hand clippers with me and cut some branches off the trees in directions i will be shooting. cut the stick end to a bit of a point and stick them in the ground all around you in a circle. Make them just high enough that you can still see clearly over them. you will also be able to see through them but this helps break up your body a bit.

and blinds are useful at spots where you can't find a tree to put a treestand in so you gotta use a different method of concealing yourself.

Yep, we're hunting land this year that has some pasture that's boardered to the north by a big row of pine trees. Unfortunately all the trees are just on the other side of the fence on someone else's property. Seen a lot of deerfollowing the tree row but still on our property. We're gonna place our popup blind so it butts up against the fence/trees.

Here is mine.


I wouldn't exactly call it hunting, but it's effective. It is sealed to the elements, I have a small heater and I can get away with quite a bit. I can eat, stretch out if I want to, talk to my buddies on walki talkis if I want to. I even have a small radio with headphones for when I get really bored and the deer are not moving.

I can stay in this blind all day no matter what the weather is and stay dry and fairly warm. I have killed deer on days where if I had to sit in a tree stand I would have stayed home.

I don't drive my car to the blind during the season either, I was doing some work on it in the off season. We have three of these blinds on different sides of a 50 acre property.
