RE: Ground Blinds
I've got an Ameristep Doghouse TSC. I would recommend you get the largest one possible. I'd like to get a Doulble Bull someday but the Doghouse will do fine for now. If you look at the Doghouse, just be aware there is a TSC version and a regular and the TSC is larger.

RE: Ground Blinds
I bought one of those last year. I found that the shoot thru window were to small and was too dark inside. You had to have the big window unzipped to shoot out of. I left it up and we had a couple good snow storms with wet snow and it broke one of the roof supports.

RE: Ground Blinds
I know how you can get one for free...
Build it from dead fall. Just create a nice groundblind out of dead limbs and branches. If you want take some 2x4's and cut them to a point to drive into the ground at the four corners for a frame. Some wire might help to hold the dead fall...
They work just as good as the bought ones, only are not portable. But from my experiences the longer you leave it out there the less likely deer are to notice it, no matter if its bought or built...So if youre not looking for portability then build one...
