I've read some of the reviews for the Doghouse Blind so I decided to do my own. For starters, I scouted an area with absolutely no trees that could facilitate a climbing stand so I went and bought me a ground blind. I noticed that the roof seems to have pinholes in rood in a couple places. Now this could be lack of coating and the light was hitting it so it appears as if there are pin holes (when It rains I'll give an up date). I also bought the blaze orange cover for the top so hopefully I won't get shot at. Set up- This was a breeze, pops right up, two tent poles and four stake and your ready to hunt. The blaze orange cover sets on the top and easily attaches to the hook loops on the blind. Use-Well I never got a chance today to test the Shoot Through Mess, however having that up vice unzipping the windows makes you virtually undetectable to the naked eye. Upon tear down I tried loking in, unless your a few inches away from the window, it blends in naturally with the camo of the blind. This allows you to be a little more mobile with out being detected movement wise. Space-Previous reviews stated that the space inside was cramped. Now, I'm 6'1 29inch draw length. At first I would agree until I noticed the that the bottoms of the blind were actually tilted in. Once I moved it I could have plenty of room to draw (if the situation ever arises-------Still skunked for the year. Tear down-This is where it gets tricky. remove the stakes and tent poles was the easy part as well as breaking down the blind and folding it to one wall. The bending and twisting it back up took about 6 attempts then I finally figured it out. the Directions suck. Transportation-On the way out I hand carried it. I humped it out. I was able to wrap my straps tot eh pack with those of the carrying case and basically walked out with ease unlike the walk in. Highly suggest attaching it to your pack. All in all, I'm happy with the purchase and recommend this to anyone who likes the ability to pop it up and tear it down in a jiffy. I suggest a couple dry runs before you actually take it to the field.
