AzDiamondHeat Report post Posted September 26, 2016 What have you used or do you currently use? Thinking of (finally) adding one to my gear. Hoping to also use it to get wife out taking more wildlife pics and littlenboy tagging along. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red Sparky Report post Posted September 26, 2016 I have used the dog house blind. Bought it new on e-bay with free shipping for a decent price. It is a good shotgun/ rifle/ muzzle loader blind but too low to draw a bow in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swivelhead Report post Posted September 26, 2016 Double Bull wide. Very important to brush them in well. The days of setting up & climbing in are over IMO. Supposedly turkeys don't care about a pop up blind. With a few exceptions, I've recently had turkeys spook at the sight of my blind. Anybody else have this issue with turkeys? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tjhunt2 Report post Posted September 26, 2016 Definitely buy a ground blind especially if you have a young one. You all three can get in it and your movement won't be detected by the game. It does help to brush it in a little. I have been fortunate in taking many critters at close range in mine. I have tried a few different ones and they all have their place in the field depending on the terrain. Ameristep Brickhouse is a good one and will only set you back a little over $100. Have fun!

Explorer Report post Posted October 2, 2016 I like ground blinds and pop-up blinds. Both have pro's and con's. Popup blinds can get hot. Ground blinds take time to build and don't provide max cover. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildwoody Report post Posted October 2, 2016 The doghouse is to small for archery, my elbow hits the back when I draw. Never had much luck with double bulls with the side rod couplers not breaking. I've gone to the middle of the row about $150 - $200 range, I look for 6 1/2 ' to 7' cub easy up blinds. You can easily fit 2 or even take a nap. loll. Anyway that's my opinion, oh ya with big shot thru windows 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AzDiamondHeat Report post Posted October 4, 2016 I ended up with a big cat 350. It is BIG. Seems like it will work good for putting the whole family inside. Might have to end up getting another smaller one for when it is just me. Looking forward to getting it out in the woods and trying it out. Will be a very different experience. Did I mention it is BIG??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
