Title: Hidden Hunter Blind..thoughts please
Post by: champ38 on December 18, 2009, 09:39:00 AM
Just wanting some thoughts from those that have used this Blind. Been looking at the larger version, seems this one would accommodate my 62-64" LB's. Also been looking at the Yukon Enforcer Elite model and wondering how they compare.

I have used the hidden hunter blind from 3 Rivers this year and have killed several deer from it using 62" long bow and a 64"ntn self bow with out any problems.  I like the blind and my only complaint is that the metal rods that lay on the ground really rust.

I hunted out of mine with my 64" bow this year. Absolutely no problem. Where this blind shines is it's quick and easy setup and take down.

Come on folks,I know there has been quite a few threads on blinds, and I did searsh them, but havnt found much  about the Yukon enforcer elite. Ive never hunted from a blind, but now with 3 little boys ages 7,5,4, thats really wanting to hunt with daddy,...I need somthing BIG, not to mention my 64" longbow. Of course i do have a 56" Shrew CH carbon on the way  :bigsmyl:  so that should help..... Thanks for the pics Ron and info Bob.

The Hidden Hunter blind is awesome. In this cold weather, a true "easy up easy down" blind is a life saver. Super quality, plenty of room.

Does anyone else have problems with the steel rods rusting? If so, what is the solution? I would think Ron and Roger would know this.

I purchased one from Ron and it has plenty of room and easy to set up - what more do you want. Mine is DAT camo and have only good things to say about it - - AND made in the USA, try and beat that
I suppose steel would oxidize - never had that as an issue.

I also have a DAT camo model. I like it! I haven't had a rust issue. My only complaint is that mine didn't come with any stakes, so I had to borrow the ones from my other blind. Since I bought the HH the other hasn't gotten any use anyway. I got some shoot through screens for it this fall, but I haven't used them yet. They are easy to set up, but a bit of a pain to transport, no more than any other blind though.

As for the rods rusting....I'm sure there are specks of rust somewhere on mine, but I haven't inspected it closely. It has spent most of 2 winters outside without any real obvious rust. Iwouldn't wipe it down with any oil or anything.

By the way, I use trap stakes to hold mine down, but I tend to leave it in one spot for awhile.....if I were moving it quite a bit (like turkey hunting) I would use cheap plastic tent stakes.
