When building ground blinds, always try to make one instead of wasteing all of that money on some cheaply made piece of crap.Home made ground blinds also, last longer if you make them right.For intructions on how to make some great ground blinds e-mail me at [email protected].

But a well made pop-up is easy to set up, easy to move and is waterproof.....

I'm seriously looking at purchasing the ground blind that mirror images the surroundings. That HAS to be one of the more intriguing concepts yet. Still waiting on reviews. Anyone on here have any experience with it?

Are you serious? Just asking. It seems like the first time light shined on the mirror the reflection would spook the animals.

As for good pop-up blinds under $200.... Ameristep makes some great ones. I have two of their Dog House Blinds and love them.

Why do we need to email you??? Why not just post the instructions here so we can all benefit from your knowledge?

The doghouse is under $100. They are on sale down here for $39.99. They are large enough to bow hunt out of, unlike the outhouse. The doghouse is a good buy for the money.

The side panels are angled slightly downward, which prevents the reflection of the sun. Could it happen? Possibly, but from what I've seen, the inventors already had that in mind when they designed it. Pretty brilliant, actually.

Da, yeah, I'm serious. Seems there would be same issues as with any blind, use care in placement, make sure it blends in. Looks like that type of blind would accomplish that. Seriously.

I have made alot of blinds mostly for archery antelope on water holes. 4 years ago I bought a double bull. I was concerned with a pop upbecause ofthe winds that we have here. they hold up extremely well for what I do. I have broken 2 of the poles so far one from a wind storm and once was my lack of know how when trying to set it up. When I talked to the boys at Primos to see if I could buy new ones they told me I couldnt but if I gave them my address they would ship me some new ones for postage. To me that is service... I have friends here that have ameristep. They tend to go through more poles and get charged for parts everytime. They cost more but for me it is worth the extra overtime money needed to purchase them.

I just searched on my site www.myhuntingshop.com and on the first page of results there were 6 for under $100. I'm interested to know how much it costs in supplies to build one, and also how long it would take. I think I'll just pay the $70 or so to get a pop up blind. And just for the record I too love the Ameristep Doghouse blinds.

I use to make my own blinds but I ended up buying one at a discount price and wish I had done that from the start it is easy to set up is light and a lot more comfortable,worth the investment.

Well, fishintay, our gracious Moderator asked you a question.

I was going to ask the same.

We're waiting.
