Barronett Blinds: Grounder 250 Hunting Blind Review

.

After turkey season was over and I was all done with my filming I decided it was time for a new blind to hunt and film from. After a lot of research and consideration I settled on a Barronett Blinds-Grounder 250 blind. It is a 5 hub design and the setup and take down is as fast as it gets. You can set the blind up in a matter of a few seconds.

Once the blind arrived and I was trying it out, I realized the window sills were right about arrow hgt. for me when I was in a kneeling position. I am only 5'6" so for a taller guy this might not have a problem with this.

Compared to the coil up blind I was using this 5 hub design is much simpler to set up. You just pull on the tag at the center of each panel until it pops out into place. Pop the roof up and your done!

The blind has one large window on each side with a center vertical zipper that will allow you to just open the left or right half of each window.

One of the major pluses of this blind is its light weight! At 14lbs. it is one of the lightest full size 5 hub blinds you can get. That is important when you consider all the other gear you will also be lugging in.

The blind has tons of room and measures 59" square by 67" tall!

I was impressed with the construction and compares to other blinds that cost much more.

Alps Outdoors - Rhino Hunting Chair Review

.
After turkey season was over and I was all done with my filming I decided it was time for a new and better blind to hunt and film from. I decided on a Barronett Blinds-Grounder 250 blind. It is a 5 hub design and the setup and take down is as fast as it gets. You can set the blind up in a matter of a few seconds.

Once the blind arrived and I was trying it out, I realized the window sills were right about arrow hgt. for me when I was kneeling. I am only 5'6" so for a taller guy this might not be an issue.

Of course, if you are going to sit in a blind for any amount of time and be comfortable, you need a chair or stool of some sort. That started me looking for a light weight chair with a back support that would solve all these issues.

I settled on the "Alps Outdoors - Rhino Stool". I guess they refer to it as a stool as it only has 3 legs but I would call it a chair. It only weighs 5lbs. and comes with a lifetime guarantee.

The only minor issue I have about the chair is that the back is pretty straight up. I needed to keep the weight down as the blind is 14lbs it self so a larger more comfortable chair was not really an option and it is certainly way more comfortable than a backless stool!

Other than that, it seems well built, gets my arrow above the bottom of the window opening of the blind and provides a reasonably comfortable seat without excess weight to pack in.

I f you are looking for a hunting chair I would definitely recommend it and here is a link where you can get more information or order one for yourself;
