I used a few Ameristep brand and a few Rhino brand. I've had a few of them for several years with no issues....well a limb did fall and put a hole in the top of one but some good ole Gorilla tape fixed that problem
When I need expert advice I tend to talk to myself The older I get the better I used to be

Best thing ever made for ground blinds is the Caldwell Fieldpod. It's a tripod that you can adjust to your chair height with a gun rest,it firmly swivels side to side and pivots up and down. Dang nice for road crossings because the gun is up and ready to shoot. I got one several years ago so my kids would have a good rest but since then have gotten a couple more. The field pod is awesome. If I could recommend a piece of gear this is it. Especially for longer ranges.

I love them. I can be lazy and still be concealed. Fall asleep and not fall out! Some of the places I hunt is better on the ground. You climb 10-15 feet and can't see anything.
My opinions and comments are my own. They do not reflect the position or political opinions of Aldeer or any of the Aldeer administration.
