This big Oak decided to give it up and unfortunately a few of its limbs came down between my blind and the trail.

The good news Craig is, it can be a  new blind with little to no work.
Relax,

It actually worked out pretty well. I got to add some more branches to the blind in the front and back. The bigger stuff I kind of just pulled out of the way. Here is looking at the blind after the clean-up. You can see my blue cutters in the blind.

Right you are Charlie.  Here is what my view is now from inside the blind, I am really looking forward to a little sit time in it this season.

Charlie - Wind direction is the main thing to consider.  The majority of the time we get a West to East direction wind. During stormy conditions we do get Northeast and southeast Wind. So I usually have 2 set ups to play the different wind conditions.

Craig,

Nice looking Blind.

Good advice John.  I should look at making 2.  Realistically, I will only have 2-3 three sits here before late season which is a  waste of time on this particular property.
Relax,

You'll live longer!
