I like my LX-5 Undercover by Eastman. @$170 with carry pack. Set-up is easy and lots of window options.

I'd take a look at these.  I have the Enforcer Elite and it's big enough for two trad hunters to hunt out of side by side, in chairs.  It's a heck of a lot of blind for the money, and the windows are enormous (great for trad shooters).

There are many blinds on the market and I have used most of them. The one I like the best and use exclusively is the Hidden Hunter blind made in Michigans Upper Peninsula. I like it because it's the quickest and easiest to set up and take down of all the blinds I have used. It can be carried over the shoulder with little effort when I want to change location. An important factor for a turkey hunter.

I have to agree with owlbait,  I now have three of the big Eastman's blinds and plan to purchase at least four more!!

They are every bit as good, and user friendly as anything that Double Bull has out there at a fraction of the cost!!!!

Ron, I like them too!  But my Fiancee' is always wants to hunt with her bow in the same blind....I need room to to shoot too!  So we share the big Eastman blinds together.....

I've got one of the Yukon Tracks blinds that Big Al listed.  Good blind for the money, I got mine on clearance after season for very little money.  It's the small one, which works great when I'm by myself, a little cramped with a buddy, but get the bigger one with a tradbow.  I had my 40"ATA wheelie in there one time practicing and made the whole blind jump when the top limb smacked it.  I now shoot the 33"ATA bows from it and haven't had any issues.

Also, I didn't see what camo options they have listed, but if you find one with the "Western Field" brush camo, get that one!  It's much better than the others, you could set it up in a field or lightly brushed in forest and it'd disappear much better than the oak-leaf style of the older patterns.

Scott, the Hidden Hunter 6X6 is plenty big enough for two. My wife and I sit together a lot and there's room for both of us to shoot our longbows.

Oops...Ron or anyone else,  Would you have a suggestion of camo pattern for hunting Pronghorn Antelope?  Thx, TMM

[Justin Falon]

Thanks for all the feedback.  I am thinking....

Pronghorn Antelope aren't to picky on blinds as long as there no wind flap

The Yukon Tracks blinds are also very, very easy to set up and take down.  Less than 1 minute either way, probably closer to 30-45 sec. if you're really trying for speed.
