    Great Holding Blind
    May 15, 2021
    Very impressed with the quality of these holding blinds so far, Heavy Cordura fabric, and love the blacked-out back of the blind. we use ours daily in training, set up is easy, rolling up and storage is great, and stay put in winds. I like the option of the grommets located at the bottom to attach ball bungees to that keep the poles from sliding out of the pockets as we leave our poles in the fabric pockets and don't have to worry about them sliding out anymore. They are doing the job for us! We have to rely on our equipment to hold up and not break, these holding blinds seem to be a product that will hold up to daily training for years to come so far.
    Pros
    • Heavy-duty Cordura fabric with black backing, Heavy-duty steel step in poles for hard ground.
    Cons
    • None so far.

    Great addition to training setup
    August 1, 2024
    The 8 ft holding blind has been a great addition to my training setup. I had concerns about the two piece poles, but this has proved to be a very sturdy set up. The post have 2 sided steps for sinking the post in the ground, they work great and are far better than the single sided ones. The blind material is sturdy and well sewn. I would highly recommend this holding blind to anyone.
    Pros
    • Very well thought out & manufactured blind

    Quality product
    March 15, 2024
    These blinds are extremly durable. The poles are steel and solid. The fabric is heavy duty with good protection for the poles. I use them here in Texas where the days can be very windy and in summer the dirt/clay more like concrete. They are holding up nicely!
    Pros
    • All materials are heavy duty.
    • Quailty is great.
    • During training, many times a 4 foot blind works well. But another 4 footer can be added quickly if needed.
    • The size is perfect to hide my Versa Launch Side-Kicks or my lab, Abbie.
    • Supplier, Gun Dog, is a great supplier to do business with.
    Cons
    • Overall weight is a little heavy if you have to manually carry them any distance, but, to me the quality is worth it.

    Sturdy. Well designed and constructed. Significant steel poles with pointed end and a crossbar for foot placement to push into the ground. Use it now for training my Versatile Hunting Dog (Wirehaired Pointing Griffon) for NAVHDA UT 'Steady-By-The-Blind' Sequence. We use in the future for actual Duck/Turkey Hunting Stationary Blind.

    Great quality blind!!!
    June 9, 2021
    This blind will withstand the constant use from a pro trainer. The poles, even though they are a two piece design, stay sturdy even in the strongest wind. If your looking for a blind to last you the nest 10 years, this is the one.
