layout blind
« on: December 22, 2011, 11:41:19 AM »
Any thoughts on a very inexpensive and fast alternative to a layout blind?  I don't have much cash.  Has anyone ever used the camo burlap?  I have a cow pasture that I can hunt, it's grassy.  Suggestions?  Grattis!

Where are you hunting? I've got a nice Avery lay down that could be loaned out for minimal (a duck would be nice) compensation.

I've used plain burlap a couple times field hunting.  I think it works ok, just make sure you have some natural vegetation to lay over it.  Not that comfortable but most of the time i wear my waders to keep warm and dry.

Does the field have a ditch line?

Thank you for the suggestions, I really appreciate it.  I'll grab a camp mat and burlap at the local sporting goods store.  No, there is no ditch line, just a plain jane fence line with lots of grass and cow poo!  YAY!  But I see geese holding up there mid mornings.

If you are buying the burlap that has stuff printed on it, like a grass land camo pattern, make sure you rub it in the mud and dirty it up.  My uncle bought some one time and it was almost shiny.

Get 2-3 yards of the green burlap for the green field.  Or look on line as some of those blinds are cheap!
