Ground Blind Mesh

[jlmustain]

Anyone shot an arrow through one? I've killed deer shooting a bullet through one, but never an arrow. Any thoughts?

Good call on the broadhead. I used fixed, myself. I also keep the window open. Just wondering about everyone's experience with it.

No issues with fixed blade. I would say mechanicals are a no no.

The second video is more informative than the first one.

Just can bring myself to trust shooting through that stuff.

I leave mine open and wear black myself.

I have a few home made/woods made blinds that have shooting holes that are always open. Maybe I'm overboard but I hang a feather or piece of paper on a string from the ceiling so the wind can blow it around a little. My thought is deer or turkey get used to some movement inside it.

Most of the blinds instructions say not to shoot bullets through the mesh for risk of fire

I've killed deer with G5 monotec through my primos doublebull mesh at 30. No problem

Took my wife hunting last year and told her to shoot through the mesh. Got a doe stopped and when she fired the crossbow i looked over to tell her congratulations and noticed she missed the mesh, shot through the blind. She double lunged the deer so i know a g5 fixed blade will have no problem shooting through anything in its way lol.

Thats hilarious. i had a similar scenario during a juvenile hunt and the boy got buck fever and shot a hole through the side of my blind. HAHA. Good Times.

I have personally never done it but I know 2 close friends that have done it with fixed blades with no issues.

If you hunt in one long enough its gonna happen. No doubt about it.
