Turkey hunting blind

[boboone]

We've got 2 Torrant blinds and they are great, alot of room and they have great viewing windows and for the money you can't beat them, I thing we gave somewhere around $130 for them.

I have 2 Ameristep Doghouse blinds and a Primos Predators Den. Love the Doghouse for solo hunts and the other for when I hunt with a partner.

Thanks, found some on ebay, got a dark horse.. wish I could find a used matrix but those are like unicorns, nowhere to be found... the rhino looked good too. Thanks again.

I too would like to have another Matrix 360 to just put away for when mine bites the dust.

Had a Matrix and sold it and got the darkhorse. You will love those blinds.

I liked my Matrix, but the Dark Horse has a MUCH better window configuration. The larger ports on the back side come in handy if you need to set up facing the sun.....doesn't let nearly the amount of light in as the 180 window does.

If you haven't checked them out yet look at Barronett ground blinds. They have all different sizes and there prices are unbeatable. I got two of them and they are great. I got the grounder 350 it measures 70x70x80 and gander mtn. sells them for 159.00. I got mine at the show for 115.00. The 350 it the biggest. Also on another note and this goes for any ground blind look at the double bull frame pak for carrying you blind. I hate stuffing blinds back in the bag and with this it just buckles around your blind no more fighting the bags.

"Best" is a relative word...I looked and looked and looked before I bought...as I didn't want to waste money...I wanted to buy ONE blind and have it for a long time...

I ended up with the dark horse as well....can't say enough good things about it....it has worked well for me while bowhunting...

Great shooting holes...all around it...
It's quite and very easy to set up....(pratice before you hunt...trust me)
Not that heavy...
All black on the inside for max concealment

I also went the route and purchased the backpack made for this blind...it is made like a very high end backpack...lots of padding and waist belt to even out the load...I can put a TON of stuff in that thing and carry it all day....it even has a spot to carry your bow so it's hands free walking...

hope that helps with your decision

I use the Ameristep Doghouse, good blind for hike in hunts since it breaks down and sets up pretty easy, along with ease of getting into the woods with it solo.  Kinda tight with two hunters but doable.

Just curious- did you not like the 360 viewing with the matrix? Why did you sell it and buy the dark horse when you can only have 180 viewing? I bought a crusher and should be getting it soon. So i was just wondering why you didnt like your matrix.
