    Any Blind that is brushed in works for me. I have never paid more than $110 for my blinds. I will not purchase any ground Blind with Velcro windows. Other than that if it is a hub system and is under $110 - I'll purchase. Ground Blind brushed in 9.16.15.jpg

    I just purchased the 'doghouse' blind from ****s for around 60$. It has Velcro windows but the mesh that covers them is supposedly made to be shot through.

    Why are you against using velcro windowed blinds?

    My guess is because they're extremely noisy to open

    The zipper windows usually have a loop and a button. You can unzip the windows but use the loop and button to hold the window up. You can undo the loop and drop the window without making any sound. If the windows do not have a loop and button - purchase the giant paper clips anywhere and use them to fold back windows or hold the window like it is closed. I want the inside of my blind to be as dark as possible, no light leaking through.

    I'm sure people like the Velcro, personally I just don't like them.

    Rhino XP-1 ground blind. Awesome blind and very easy to setup and conceal.

    I've got a couple of blinds. The hub blinds are my favorite and easy to set up.
    Taking time to brush in and getting them in place early enough are more Important than name brand.

    I am big on only using brush to make a hide. It is more out of necessity due to the cows on the property I hunt though. I have never had a problem with just taking a couple of t post and panel and making a wall cut some shoot threw areas in the panel and place brush on it with zip ties. You are invisible and if you use ceder trees your scent is also masked win win to me oh and dirt cheap to boot :cool:
