So, exactly how well insulated are the Redneck Blinds? Any wind intrusion? How long did the battery in the sleeping bag last?


experience is a freakin' awesome teacher....

That redneck blind was probably cleaner nicer and more insulated than some camphouses I have slept in.

Glad it worked out for you

They are 100% wind tight and fiberglass so insulated. Get toasty on a warm day

Slept in a heated sleeping bag, in a 1k+ shooting house, froze his nutz off, and saw one deer he hopes his buddy can shoot.
I get the idea and would probably do the same but definitely woulda looked at the forecast or took a heater and cracked the door.

They are sealed pretty damn tight. No wind intrusion whatsoever. Sleeping bag battery lasted about 6hrs. Then it got a bit nippy. I knew the forecast but its been a long time since i felt 20 degrees for a long period of time. Colder than i remember 😂. I will do it some more but not at 20. 40-45 would be about right.

Can remember on night at All Red in Bankhead it snow’s on us. And we didn’t use tents unless it was raining…

I've used a propane tank heater in one of those in that kind of weather some. It'll run you out even with windows open.

That said if I was in a club and people started spending the night gassing out a club stand we'd have a talk. Actually I've been in a couple that had a rule to prevent such shenanigans.

Nope. Not even for my kids or grandkids. Diff strokes for diff folks I guess. Glad you survived and I hope your buddy kills the deer and it was worth it!

I have spent the night in a mummy bag in the bed of my truck on several occasions on some WMA hunts. Gotta have a tarp up or something to keep the frost off was the only issue. Also slept under my truck in a mummy bag one time when it was raining.

That’s not true, I would have never gotten to that point 🤣
