I have owned a Yukon and a Double Bull Dark Horse.

Facts:
-Yukon ($150)lasted for 5 years without any problems.
-DB ($400)had to be sent back to repair rod pockets after only 9 Months!!!  Had to pay shipping.

DB recurve blind with the lightweight rods is hard to beat in terms of setup and walking long distances.  But they don't last long.  In the future I'll prbably buy two yukons.  Plus, if you leave your blinds out in the woods, who would steal a Yukon?  A Double Bull would be gone in an hour!!!

I have a double bull t2 and would stick to under 60". I went to 56" and It was a better combo.  I bought the blind first and then a bow later to fit the blind. Buying gear is an expensive lesson.
If your shooting stinks, work with a Form master.  It'll bring back your A game.

We've used the Primos Escape Deluxe and like it very much.

The Hidden Hunter blind which is made in the USA is the quickest set up and take down blind that you will find. Portability is also easy. These are important factors for turkey hunting for those times when you want to "quickly" pick up and move your location to where the birds are.

You can easily shoot a 64" bow from the blind and I've heard of one that shot his 66" bow from the Hidden Hunter.

When you see the video demo, the first blind used in the film is the smaller 5X5 gun blind. The Bow blind shown with the hunter and his bow is 6X6 and it sets up and carries just as easily.

I'm planning on building a "shield" of mirror-finished plexi-glass. I've seen something like it on the internet and it seems you can walk right up to all kinds of game. When you get close they see their own reflection.
I'll let you know if it works or not.
