Here are 3 of the blinds that I'll take this year. I have a couple more pro360's that I'll take. I'll probably put these three out where I had my main 3 blinds last year.
This one is an Eastman XL. It's big. I can stand in it. It'll be big enough for Mailman and I. I'll hunt with him until he gets his axis. I'll video it. We both can hunt comfortably from this rascal. I just bought it for 99 at Academy.
I don't spend a lot of time brushing my blinds in. I use military netting most of the time. On this hunt, I'll supplement the net with cedar limbs. I'll also add netting to the close brush, draping it to break up the outline. Here are the XL and my new Pro360 with netting applied. It also helps with fading.
I like the window set up on the XL OK, but they don't have a window on the door. Sometimes, I have to back my blind into brush, making me enter from the front. I shoot throuh door windows quite often. I'll get by, but it'll make me think about door placement more.
I have a ProX in duck blind. I like the camo. It's a lighter color. I threw the Eastman netting over it. Looks OK, but the military netting does a better job and is cheaper. Here are pics with and without the net.
Here's a comparison of all three.
The netting gets rolled and placed in my bag along with the blind and a ground stake.
I have 5 ready to go. Only thing I need to do is to add a couple more black window covers for my 360's to block out the net behind me.
