Working on hiding my layout blind

Postby Tomkat » Sun Jul 28, 2013 6:14 pm

Brandy is helping me camo up my new Power Hunter blind. It has been mudded up and I am cutting strips of burlap and tieing them on. I will also add some grass to help blend it in.

Go to the craft dept of walmart and buy several packages of raffia grass. Much cheaper than buying the Avery blind camo kits. You can dye it green or brown to match where you're going hunt. You can also spray paint it to match.

Use a little flat black krylon to give it some shadowing.

Yes I will mud it and weather it. The blind was mudded, now its time to hit the burlap. Goodkarmarising uses burlap on his blinds, they look great in the field.
