When you use a portable hunting blind, do you put it up everytime you go hunting or do you leave it sit so that the deer get used to it?

leave it up if you think no one will steal it on you
I leave mine up, but it would depend on the location, and the odds of someone stealing it...
My portable blind is only netting and I always take it with me.
You may have already checked, but make sure it's legal to leave it over night, if you decide you want to. In my state we must take it down each night. Personaly, I wouldn't leave it. I had a tree stand last year, and on the second day I found someone climbing into it. I would like to think my blood brothers are all trust worthy, but I won't leave my blind alone this year. Blinds are to easy to steal.
Mine is out all season and then some.
if it were just us honest rednecks you could always leave them up, but to risky for me.
It's best to let deer get used to ground blinds. It's also a good idea to bush the blind in with grass and limbs from the area. Brushing in a blind well breaks up the out line of the blind and just mihgt help hide from thieving no goods. I catch sells at fabric and craft stores, buying up the 6 foot sections of fall colored vines. I use these to help brush in my blinds and they last for some time.
i leave mine up for no longer than a week if i think no 1 will steal it. my climbing tree stand sets out as long as it has to.but last time i left mi blind up i found it with a broken zipper holes and under a cedar tree....even though i staked it in.
i have one for deer hunting and i do leave it out a couple months before using, my other one is for turkey hunting and just goes with me everytime!
