ground blind for second hunter
this year my younger sister is going to be old enough to hunt and i want her to try out bowhunting with me a couple of times. she wont be shooting but just kind of picking up the basics on how to be quiet. what i was wondering is how far away from my stand should i make the blind? i dont want it to be right below just incase i drop an arrow or something, but i dont want her to be too far away either to where she cant see me incase i need to motion to her to be quiet.

RE: ground blind for second hunter
I gave this some thought , IMO you should put her on a stand in a close tree but away from the expected aproch lanes ,or in the same tree around or above , maybe with a camcorder to get the shot of you sticking the big one. You should NEVER have to tell her to be quite ,explain that any noise and neither of you will see a deer ! Glad to see another lady getting into the sport.
