Suggestion for blind to use with long bow
 
Hey all!
Was looking at/for a pop up blind that would work while shooting a long bow. None of them seem to have enough room? Am I missing something?

I think there may be a Big Mike blind that might be tall enough.

Longbows
 
I've never used a ground blind with my longbow but I've looked at a bunch of them and never seen one that seems tall enough. I suppose when I make a pit blind I could put a pop up over it and the bow would work. Learning to shoot your trad bow from all positions is really the key but it takes a lot of real world practice.

I havs shot bows up to 66" long from the Double Bull blinds. It all comes down to your position and canting the bow for clearance.
I do prefer shorter bows in the blinds from 48" to 58"..

Thanks folks. I usually cant the bow a fair bit when I shoot. I'll look at the double bull blind.

your position in the blind has a lot to do with being able to shoot longer bows. Keeping as far back to the back wall,and in the center make a big diference. I also kneel to shoot from the pop up blinds.
