On another thread pepper0067 was asking about ground blinds. I checked that thread late so figured I would put one of the ground blinds that I'm using on a seperate thread. Everything that I need is in a 5 gallon pail and is very light to carry into field/forest. The main thing to consider is that by pinning a camo sheet to some trees it masks your movements. If I think deer will be using a trail away from established blind this is what I use. Have had deer walk past at 6 feet. Have been using this for bowhunting but it's not the fault of the blind that I'm looking north when deer walks in from the south. Pail is my stool and you can slowly swivell around on it silently. Quick to set up and take down. Just an idea.
Cool set up. What are using to hold up the camo netting?

The kill is the satisfying, indeed essential, conclusion to a successful hunt. But, I take no pleasure in the act itself. One does not hunt in order to kill, but kills in order to have hunted. Then why do I hunt? I hunt for the same reason my well-fed cat hunts...because I must, because it is in the blood, because I am the decendent of a thousand generations of hunters. I hunt because I am a hunter.- Finn Aagard
Great idea. Thanks for posting it. Could have a heater in there too. What do you use for poles?
I carry a camo cloth and 3-legged stool but it's hard to swivel on it.
Normally I just use bulliten board push pins to pin sheet to trees. For the setup in the pics. I posted I brought along some stakes that I cut in garage to stick in the ground. I had noticed that a herd of deer were using a trail through a field well out of range for a bow shot.
