    Anyone have any first hand experience with the Haybale blinds?

    I've got a spot on a property that I hunt that the deer come out of mornings and evenings most every time I hunt. I only have 1 tree to put a stand in and the way the branches grew it's impossible to get it facing the right direction. The owner doesn't want me cutting the branches off because there so big. When I saw the Haybale blinds I thought it could be a good idea.
    Any thoughts?

    I hunt from tree stands but I hunt most of the time from a ground blind.

    I use several of "luckys hunting blinds" and have had great success with them.

    I have one in Virginia but have not set it up yet. Been too busy in NC doing food plots. But I hope to have some feedback for you within a couple of weeks.

    I've had one for last 2 years. It's the sportsman's model. I've had pretty good luck out of it. Last year even had a doe about stick her head inside while sitting in it. Only downfall I've had is the cover needed replaced already but it sat out for about 5 months first year and 3 or 4 next since I've had it. Which isn't saying alot but it also got moved around a little with a track hoe while we were clearing brush last spring. A new cover is around 200 for anyone that wondered btw. But it's been a good buy, really easy to draw a bow and plenty of room for 2 people and lots of gear.
