Title: Hidden Hunter
Post by: Chain2 on November 12, 2014, 08:15:00 PM
Thinking of getting out of the trees. Looking at Hidden Hunter blinds.
Do the deer not see it ? I think they'd be fine after the deer got used to them but at first I think they'd shy away???
Can a tall guy shoot a longbow out of one ? How are they in the snow? They look like they would be comfortable for late season. Thanks guys

The two things I love about mine are 1) There is plenty of bow limb clearance and 2) the vertical windows are low enough to the ground to allow for a really close shot.

I only use mine to hunt spring gobblers out of so I can't help you any more than that.

A few years ago when my wife and I were bow hunting in the U P, I stopped on the way into camp in the late afternoon to set up a HH blind for my wife. I set it just inside some popple slashings near a deer run. She got into the blind the next morning and had several groups of deer walk by her and they paid no attention to the blind.

That photo is impressive. Can a tall guy access and shoot O's longbow in it?

You can stand up in it but the blind is made for shooting from sitting down.

Great blinds.  It's nice to not have to put it back up every time it rains or snows.  The only time I have had one go down was in 50+ mph winds.

I like my ameristep hub blind. Cheap and works great. Only issue is my 62in recurve is right on edge for too long inside. If I build it up off ground a bit then its fine
