I had an older T5 model. It got stolen (house break in). It was really easy to set up. So I bought another one (recurve model this time). Was in Neb. hunting turkeys. I could not get the blind set up. I fought it for 15 min. Finally packed it back into the bag, turned around and there were about 10 turkeys wathing me about 20 yds. away. The air really did get blue then *%#@. I called Double Bull they would send me another blind - no cost. I told them to set it up before sending, make sure it set up easy. Come to find out the material was sewn to tight for the size of the rods. When setting it up, the rods had a huge bend in them. This one is much better - like the recurve model! They even sent me extra netting for the windows for free and an extra bag if I ever needed it. I cut it up and made pockets inside for my calls, etc.
