Anyone using an Apache Pyramid blind?
« on: November 17, 2016, 11:06:00 AM »
I've been hunting from my ladderstands this season, but my knee/back issues are causing me quite a bit of discomfort. Thinking hard about taking my ASAT Pyramid blind and my hammock seat and slipping down into the creek bottom in the morning. With high winds in the forecast I am hoping the Pyramid and my hammock seat along with the ASAT leafy suit might produce some good results. Anyone else use an Apache Pyramid blind? Mike

I've used one in the past and it seemed to work pretty good. Really easy to carry around and set up. Just make sure you have some cover behind you.

Lowrider, , PM sent. Fred
Do not follow where the path may lead.  Go, instead, where there is no path and leave a trail.

I would day get the bigger one.They are very well made and lightweight and travel through the woods easy.Fast to set up and take down.I would still brush them in a little for deer.

I attached fabric leaves to mine for more of a 3-d effect.You can shoot out the sides or through the windows.Its challenging to make a kill from one IMO.But very exciting.I  have killed a few deer from mine and one nice buck.

Pick a camo pattern that blends well on the ground..With depth and 3-D effect.

For ground hunting a ghillie suit is the best answer.  The only problem is getting it trimmed enough to shoot, while still maintaining the camo affect. NOTHING, to include turkeys seem to be able to pick you up in a ghillie suit

Pete, Here's a couple of pics of mine that I set up in my yard to practice shooting from behind it. I pinned some leaves from a craft shop to it to help it blend in the woods and when I'm hunting with it I brush it in some to break up the outline.

Hey Fred, That looks great with the 3d leaves. Those leaves at the top really break up the outline! I could barely see you sitting behind the blind in the second image. Thanks for taking the time to take the photos and post pick!

They were made in Lake Orion, MI.Maybe you can do a search and find out if they are still available.

I don't know if they are still available to purchase. I bought mine a couple of years ago.
