Right up there in the cool factor with HECS and Ozonics

:chuckle: :chuckle: I know a half dozen self proclaimed experts that sit behind those things every year since they came out. They tell me repeatedly how awesome they are! One of the guys even got a shot at an animal last year! That did it for me...they must be awesome!!!

soo pretty gimmicky
I think they have their niche. But you still need to blend with your surroundings. I'd rather hide in plain view backed up against a good cover with appropriate camo patterns than hide behind a screen with improper back cover and camo when trying to get a shot off.
I often am surprised by deer that were in open spaces, but blended well to their back ground. And I rarely miss a groundhog poking his head out of a hole. Even at great distance.

I looked at them, only drawback for me was their price. I think it would work good for open country where there is little to hide behind or in front of to break your outline. they have shooting "slots" so you can shoot a bit through it instead of sticking your whole head and shoulders over it
And just hope in that open country you don't flash the mirrors as you get set up :o

I think you would be better of with a hub blind than the ghost blind. Ido think it might work for ducks though sine you are shooting up not over. :twocents:

When cabelas first started dealing them they had a special offer. $35.00 I almost bought one but wanted to wait for reviews. A buddy swears by his. Not willing to spend that much but want to try one coyote hunting in a wide open field.
Just wear a bunny hat, who needs a Mojo rabbit. :chuckle:

It worked fantastic... You just tilt it down and the animal only sees what is the material on the ground.

I built a similar blind about 8 years ago using mylar material and used 3M spray on glue.

thats the thing it seems like it would be so much cheaper and easy to make one at home the pay 200.00 for one.
