Looking for ground blind suggestions

[alozcarney]

After searching a few hunting blinds, i see the TideWe VisMaster 270°See-through hunting blind seemed to get good reviews. Anything else anyone wants to suggest? I've always been a fan of vertical corner windows and like the idea of silent slide windows. Not much of a fan of the DB blinds/window set up but could be convinced.
We set our blinds up in August and remove at the end of our November rut hunt. I'm a bigger guy, 6' 270 and need all the room I can get.

My ground blinds are usually made out of natural materials found right at the spot, and are used year after year. I have bought a few market ground blinds, but many are too restrictive and need more height for the upper limb of the bow.

So I guess a pertinent question would be is this for bow or gun. It makes a difference.

I get the cheap o spring steel ground blinds and set them up a few weeks before deer season.

I stake and tie them down.

I put a roof brace inside to keep them from collapsing in case a freak snow storm occurs.

I lost a few blinds that way.

A few day's before the season opens I put chairs, heaters and other accoutrements in them so I don't have to carry them out everytime and whichever way the wind is blowing I have a blind ready to hunt.

If I'm hunting from a tree or ladder stand it's nice having the pop up in close proximity to have shelter in case inclimate weather roll's in.

I also spray them with UV killer, as I'm told the waterproof treatment they use on the blinds makes them visible to some animal's that see in different light spectrums.

Good luck.

Pallet Ground Blind ...  Just Sayin

Back when I hunted the southern zone I had a place where I made a somewhat permanent blind much like Doc, just using limbs, and brush making a corral. It was about 4 feet high and had a couple of convenient stumps to sit on inside. I would have the ground cleaned up to bare dirt, It was probably 15 feet in diameter so I had plenty of room to sneak around in and reposition if I had to. I would go down a few weeks before season and refresh everything getting it ready.

I also have an Ameristep throwdown wall type that I use mostly for varmint hunting, it is not really made for a permanent setup, more for hunting on the move but it works well.
