if you are talking your land, a good natural blind is hard to beat, but on public land, somebody else always squats in them. if you are hunting on public land, i am afraid i cant help you. but there is something that worries me about using a camo ground blind on public land. hunters, wearing blaze orange, get shot every year. how in the world is anyone going to see you inside of a camoflage blind? if they shoot blaze orange, it just seems to me that a camo blind is just not safe. this year, i bought a medium sized hunk of camo material. i am going to cover up my bottom half with it, and i am working on breaking up my blaze orange jacket, so it will at least not look like a huge orange punpkin in the middle of the woods. my goal is to hopefully fool the deer into thinking i am further away than i really am. if you think they can not see blaze orange, you are only fooling yourself.
