Ground Blind Camo

[bolo7735]

I purchased a Hidden Hunter Blind in the Digital All Terrain cover. When I used the blind and brushed it in the blind color still stood out. I hunt in Florida in evergreens and brown vegetation. This is where I need your opinion. Should I sell the blind and get the correct Camo finished for my area or it doesn't matter. Am I worrying too much about it?

What are you hunting and are you going to set it up for each hunt?

[bolo7735]

Hunting deer and yes, I will set the blind up each time for the duration of my hunt. I live in South Florida so I can't leave my blind or it will get stolen.

For deer I either like it to be there awhile or blend in perfectly. I have found a leafy suit to suit my needs much better than a blind.

Anyone else can give there input?

Take some black and white pictures then see how it looks. I think your over thinking the camo thing, Turkeys cold care less as long as it's some kind of camo and deer are color blind.

Post some picks here would also help!

Unfortunately I did not take any pictures of the blind in the field. I will definetly take a photo next time and do the black and white photo to see the different shades.

Do you guys need to brush the blind heavily? The reason why I ask was last hunt there were deer constant at the food plot. After the third day seeming deer I decide moving the blind in the brush and brush it in. For 3 days straight the deer no longer appear. Like they were completely spook. I just want to figure out what I did wrong. That is why I was wondering if it was the Camo on my blind.

Deer notice large changes and change is something that spooks them so it has nothing to do with the camo color.

What night wing said. I wouldn't worry about it. If you've seen some of the blinds used in Texas, you'd think yours was in stealth mode. Put it up and let them get used to it.

Agree with night wing...if you do a good job brushing it in and not changing the surrounding area...you should be fine.  Like said, turkeys don't notice them at all.  But, deer notice changes on the area so that's why they are harder to hunt from a pop up type blind.

Have you heard of the 50 100 yard rule? If the deer can see the blind at a 100 yards you don't need to brush it in  if they round the bend and see the blind it will spook them .
