I'm already getting excited about spring turkeys..must have cabin fever! Anyway, I was wondering if anyone has had success with stakeout blinds? It seems like they would be great for "run and gun" style hunting.....super light, less bulk than a full blind, and set up quick.
Do you have a certain favorite model that has held up to the elements and is functional? It seems like the stakes would be the first thing to go? Primos makes one that adjusts up and down..which seems like an advantage for shooting?

Although most stakeblinds are fairly cheap it seems like it may be possible to make my own....that may actually be more durable? Has anyone made their own?

I also noticed that a couple companies sell camo umbrellas that work for repelling rain if attached to a tree or used as a ground blind. Has anyone tried an umbrella?
