I'm looking for a new ground blind, I have the ameristep doghouse, worked fine, it's too light, no rifle rests.

What do you think is the best ground blind available besides a tower or tri-pod?

1. With 3 shooting rests and adjustable windows (shooting stick is an obstacle)
2. Large enough for 2 people ( allows for room to use a heater ) I know most aren't rated.
3. With a floor to reduce to movement from wind ( I don't stake it in for November, may keep more snug to the ground)

Appreciate any advice. Thanks!

I have a Primos Ground Max Predator. It is 77" square and 67" high (roughly).

I get into it in my wheelchair, with Bog Pod shooting sticks and I have enough room to move and check at least 3 windows. There is also room for a heater when I have needed it.

I think a blind in this size range will do you fine for what you want. Depending when you put it up it may have to be staked until it freezes in spot. Then a pole to support to roof in heavy snow when in nonuse is wise.

Good Luck,
Dan

Congrats on your nice bull elk!
