I just stumbled across this and like to hear your opinions about it.  Any chance it would work if it was made bigger?     Link  to original thread.  

 

   

   

you could have at least taken some photots of the blind for us!     now come on where is it?   :p

A mirror maybe?

Oh man, you wouldn't even need decoys for that to work!  Ever see a bird check itself out in a mirror.???

not to jack your thread but I saw these yesterday.

Sorry if this is a re-post.  I saw it yesterday too.  Just thought I'd post it up here for those that missed out.

Pretty neat though right?

Those are awesome!

I was thinking the same thing.

They actually make, or made that same idea pop up blind many years ago, I have one in my garage, it is a vinyl mirror like material on a strong material backing and rolls up to a small tube

I noticed there are no pictures of one out in the sun....they have to flash I would think.

I'm waiting for the Mylar suit version!

There was a similar concept many years ago that was just a 2-3 fold open type deal. . . have not seen them in a while. Interesting concept.

I would imagine if you brushed it in super good and made it so the sun would never directly hit that thing, you could get away with it, but once the sun hit it and reflected a bright beacon back across a field they would be deemed useless.

Biggie Maybe that is why the  walls lean inward to stop the reflection.Kip

That's what I want, Mylar Gille Suit.

You could start the woods on fire with that when the sun shines on it.  

Downfall is if you drop it off the tail gate and break all those mirror's, how many years of bad luck is that????

Just when you think you've seen it all...

If ur in gun area that could be very dangerous, mmm mmm just my 2cents  :)on the ground

As mentioned above there was a similar concept that someone posted about awhile back.  It was like a large sheild that you put in front of you.  There was a story/testimonial about a guy hunting antelope with one.  Started a couple hundred yards away and kept inching his way forward with the big mylar mirror in front of him. I remembered it being kinda cool at the time.  Those big boxes seem like they would be kinda akward, not too portable, would almost end up being permanent stand.
