[QUOTE="Petras, post: 234402, member: 216"] I've tried a few different blinds, the best one I have found is made by Ameristep. the material used to make the shell is almost like a denim type material. It is very durable. I acutally left my blind out all winter. When I went out to get everything set up for this year the blind was upside down and 1/2 collapsed, got it set back in place and anchored down and found no real tears and surprisingly no broken sticks or hubs. Only damage done was a couple of the stake points ripped off. that being said, I didn't have the outrigger ropes set up very well. I should also add that I had this blind somewhat concealed with some fairly large sticks to blend into the backdrop and the branches from the crooked ass tree it sits under were hanging down and could easily have punctured the top of an inferior blind. I want to say that the one I got was the ameristep Caretaker and they are actually very reasonably priced @ $99 at scheels. Just make sure if you go with an ameristep it has the "Durashell Plus" fabric and you won't be disappointed. And make sure you stake it down damn good too. Don't be afraid to upgrade the shitty little shoelace like material they send for the outriggers to a better rope. [/QUOTE]
