Title: When to put out blinds?

How long before the season starts do you ground blind hunters put your blinds out?   :confused:

Putting out the 7th ground set Saturday. Two to three more to go and may not set the last intended one until later season.

Not deterred in setting one up during season if a spot begs for a setup. Special attention to detailed concealment is a personal primary concern while as the least amount of disturbance to the area.

I usually set mine bout 1st of sept brush in and let set a month to settle, but not afraid to move mid season if have to , ive shot deer the same day of moving blind, trick is to wear ur scentblock stuff to make the move or setup

I put mine out in April/May, during turkey season.  I tried the ground blind thing last year.  Set it out and brushed in a month before the opener.  Never had a deer within shooting range and they stared at it the whole time they were out in the field.  Not to sound like a Debbie downer but good luck with it.  I just didn't figure it out is all.

I usually put mine out a month or so early and brush them in good here at home. But like already mentioned I've thrown them up and brushed them in and killed deer the same day. I usually go to a day lease in South Texas every year and there are no blinds in place so it's pretty much the only way to hunt there. I just brush them in really, really good and only leave one window open and cover most of it with brush. Just leave a hole big enough to shoot through.
