Title: Barronette grounder 350 for turkey
Post by: Homey88 on April 12, 2017, 07:30:00 PM
Looking for feedback on the barronette grounder 350 ground blind for hunting turkeys. Can you sit and shoot from the blind with a 64 inch longbow? Thanks

It all depends on the height of your chair/stool and If you cant your bow or not.

I wouldn't imagine it would be a problem if you practiced in it before hunting.

I really like mine.

Yes you can. But, if your target is under 10 yards the windows may be too high. Depends what you're sitting on. I no longer use my 350 for that reason.

I had one and will never own another one. Both the hubs and the ends on the poles kept breaking. When I contacted the company all they would do is send me one replacement hub. I only got to use it three times before I had to trash it.

I've killed over a dozen turkeys under 10yds out of my 350's and a few under 5yds. Kiiled them with bows clear up to 70" Hill's and regularly shoot 66-68" out of them and never had a problem.

Still don't understand people when they say they can't shoot a turkey out of them, it's got to be the chairs there using and obviously they haven't practiced out of there blinds on turkey sized targets before trying to or there setting the blinds facing up hill witch raises the windows      :dunno:    

As far as bad blinds, we have been using them for 10 years now. I've wore out 3 because of ice and rain storms or pack rats and mice. Still have 5 and have never had a hub break, a
pole break or pull out. There's a system to setting any blind up, I've seen many a hunter trash a blind from setting them up or taking them down in correctly. These are huge blinds with longer poles, more stress on everything but like I said never broke a one yet. Great blinds for $99 IMHO
