Anyone Ever Tried A Mirrored Blind?

I want a commercially made version of this for turkey hunting. I will try it and maybe put up a post and a video about it. I will try to remember to tell you about it. It seems that alot of people like this approach and, to me, the blind looks invisible

Those type of blinds have always intrigued me, but I have never met anyone that used one. Would love to hear a a report from someone not trying to sell them.

Island Shooter,

They tried those kinds of blinds on Nilo Farms in Maryland back in the 1950's on cloudy days. This was for duck hunting, but it was just a bad idea, the only time you could use them was in cloudy weather, plus "glass is very prone to breaking in the field" and so they scrapped that idea.

These blinds now made are actually reflective cardboard.

Chris,

As long as it does not break like glass I suppose you could use it.

they look pretty cool. i hate carrying stuff in the field, though.

maybe i could cut them into little pieces and glue them on my overalls.
