Saw one these blinds in the flesh at the Dallas Safari Club shindig. Expected a gnome or a hobbit to pop out of it.

IO can imagine a couple of yokuls coming back from an unnproductive day of hunting, and one say to the other,"let's see you put a couple of rounds through that old stump."

old barn wood looks rustic enough for me and fits right in there into the woods, Ive also hunted in an all white painted plywood blind, and the deer payed little or no attention to it...

I bet it would take a couple years for deer to completly forget about it, I have a vynal sided deer blind that they walk past and pay no attention to and its clay with white trim. didn't cost 3500 either.

the pop open ground blinds and single chair blinds work
great. while in a pop open i called in an 8pt to a 10yd X bow shot and he never looked at the blind.
the chair blind is easy to set up and change locations if necessary. works with either gun or X bow
on the other hand, by Traverse City on opening day my spot was taken so i had to find another spot in the dark. i wound up with a 200yd left or 300yd right possible shot. not to worry with my .300Wby. the ten point showed up about 40yd right in front of me 15min after the season opened. i was right out in the open on a slight
rise. the deer never saw me and naturally the .300Wby did the job. hoping for not too much meat loss, i made
it a heart shot.
given the choice though i will choose the blind any day
over being in the open.

Hi, I work for Nature Blinds and appreciate the writeup!

To answer some of the comments:

1) Yes it's not cheap, nor portable, but it's not competing with portable solutions per se, but rather with high-end fully-enclosed box blinds of which the nice ones (Ranch King, etc...) are also not cheap, nor portable. Ours just looks like a tree instead of a giant box.

2) The TreeBlind is our first product of 7 patents we have developed and will be releasing the next 12 months. We do have some coming that will be in the 5-15 pound, and $100-300 price range for those of you that need something to carry with you in the field.

best blind i ever hunted out of was an old abandoned shack.
Pretty much waterproof, fairly comfy with spectacular views!

All the other hunters walked right by it heading to food plots, by passing a few fruit trees, tangles of muscadine and honeysuckle to say the least of two stately old oaks.

I only got the chance to hunt it one day, and although I didn't shoot anything, I saw as many or more deer than the guys on the plots.

I'm not an expert on these things but I can't help but wonder if that blind is designed to lure in hunters rather than deer. But if their giving them away I would like the two story version.

carpet floor, insulated walls....thats not hunting. hunting isnt meant to be comfortable, these things just cater to those that cant handle being out in the rain and snow.
