The new Hidden Hunter blind in Predator camo showed up at the shop today and I could hardly wait to set it up and see if I could shoot my 66" Shrew Hill longbow out of it.
I adjusted the legs of the Hunt More chair down as low as they would go and climbed in with my bow and quiver of arrows. As soon as I grabbed the bow I knew it was going to work beautifully. I shot 6 broadheads out of the blinds window into my foam broadhead target 15yd's away and I had plenty of limb clearance...in fact I think I could even shoot a 68" bow with no problem...I'm a happy camper.

The blind is advertised as 6 X 6. I'm over 6' tall and can stand up in it.
Here's the inside, plenty of room for my big carcass and my 66" bow...8>)

That HH blind has to be the slickest blind on the market, I will be buying one from you next year when my son starts bowhunting. I really like the new camo too.

Dang, I wish they would have had that predator stuff when I bought mine. Not that the digital camo doesn't work, it just doesn't look as cool.

The HH is a tight fit for two guys, but should work for you and your son, Jason. They are lightweight and easy to set up, that's for sure.

I think I will order one of these.  I have one request for you sir, could you possibly eat a double portion of beans, spend a day in the blind, and then report your findings. I keep getting a picture of the wiley coyote blasting off the ground strapped to a rocket. Ha. Ron, I had the priviledge of meeting you at a speaking engagement you gave in Middle TN a few years ago. You are a mountain of a man. Yes, I am a member of the Olde Farts and Sore Losers.

That looks very, VERY, appealing!  My Double Bulls seem to keep losing heigth as they age.

Ron, I got my Michigan Longbow Association Magazine yesterday.  Loved the article you did on the history of the MLA.

Nathan (GreenJeans) I still wear my Olde Farts T-shirt that was presented to me there at the banquet   :D  It was a great time spent with some great folks...thanks for the memories.    :readit: .....   :bigsmyl:

I could use another one of those blinds and I've always been a sucker for that Predator camo....need to find some spare $$.

Great blinds Ron!

I read the reviews for these blinds on the 3 Rivers web site and only thing folks had a problem with really were "wires on the ground". What would those be and are they that big a deal? Also a little bit of Q&C issues but not that much.

I like it, especially the window layout and size.
 Wish I'd of spent the extra money and got one instead of the barronett blind i got.

Ron, you think they'll come out with that in the predator green color?

Ray Lyon

It looks good Ron.  Hopefully we'll be dragging a deer out of the woods up north in a couple of weeks after you've laid him low out of that blind.

Killinstuff, the wires on the ground are no big deal, in fact they're hardly noticeable. One thing that's in your favor with the wires on the floor, you can set it it without staking it down and it's not going to go anywhere because of a little wind.

What's Q&C issues?

CJ, the frame rods go from the top center of the blind down to the groung and into the center of the the floor where they all come together in a hub. Ive used one for several years and its never been an issue.
