I am no longer comfortable climbing trees and have been a ground hunter for years. I do not have and have never hunted from a tent type blind. Nor do I use stands. I make my own ground blinds from what’s around me in the woods. A pair of the long handle pruners a small bag or zip ties and a roll of duck tape and I’m good!
I actually had 5 deer within now range yesterday. I was carrying a 44 magnum however and took an old doe at 15 yards from just such a blind. I make a bunch and sometimes hunt from on to the next as the day goes on depending on situations. Wind change, sunlight now in my face, boredom.
Just make them simple and they will blend in.
