Shoot through mesh on ground blinds...
« on: September 05, 2007, 01:39:00 PM »
Anybody ever had any problems shooting through the mesh on a ground blind? I have the mesh pulled tight. Will it affect the arrow flight at all? I am looking at about a 15 yard shot.

slayer1, The arrow will zip right through it, the only problem i have is the depth perseption..

Just make sure you practice shooting through the screen.

Good luck FB

I've shot thru it and didn't feel it made any difference at all,but I still have a funny feeling everytime I do.Just have trouble trusting it.   Ben

I agree with butcher--I've shot through it with Ace blunts and didn't notice any flight problems, but it will mess with your depth perception, especially in low light.

I think I can practice the depth preception problem. I was more concerned with the flight of the arrow, I sounds like it doesnt affect it any. This will be my first year hunting from the ground, I have 2 blinds set up in really good locations. I cant wait until the season opens.

Broadheads fly better than field points through the mesh due to the larger hole.
