Way to go!
Thanks for the good photos. It gives a great idea of what a good ground blind should "feel" like. Seeing a successful set up like that gives us developing ground pounders a good bit of insight.

Congratulations.

Awesome stuff right there.

That's a great set up for ground hunting and it sounds like you were in the perfect spot.  I'm going to set up on the ground tonight just to catch deer movement in an area I haven't been.  I won't have time after work to get up a treestand, so I'm going to take my seat and go sit.
