To be successful using ground blinds, though, hunters have to first make sure they get the proper one. “You can plop that ground blind up and hunt deer you’ve patterned from your tree stand, so to speak,” agreed Lantz. Ground blinds can be especially effective at concealing movement for archers. “I put out that ground blind, let it sit for a few days, and suddenly I could kill that buck because it put me within 30 or 40 yards of that deer,” he said. More than once, he said, that’s allowed him to fill his tag. He’s put out ground blinds, maybe at the other end of the field or at least closer to where bucks are traveling. Many times, he said, they’ve saved the day when hunting a food plot or field and deer just won’t come close enough to his tree stand to offer a shot.

And a good ground blind is another option for when you need it,” said Carl Drake, a pro staffer with Hunter’s Specialties. “To me, if you’re a serious deer hunter, the more tools you have in the tool box you have, the better off you are. Most importantly, they work for taking deer and other game. They’re mobile, offer concealment and keep you dry if hunting in the rain, too. They’re great for those who can’t or don’t want to climb trees. Ground blinds are perfect for those hunting with children, said Josh Lantz, spokesman for Ameristep hunting blinds. It’s no wonder why, say their proponents. “They’re a pretty long-lasting product, say five to 10 years, so if sales are even steady year to year, that tells you their popularity is pretty strong,” Edson said. Once a poor second to tree stands, pop-up ground blinds have grown in popularity among hunters, with sales very good for the last half decade or longer, said Jake Edson, spokesman for Primos Hunting. Perceptions have changed when it comes to ground blinds.
