I needed an option to the regular type tree stands took most of mine to my buddies place in MO but kept my light weight aluminum ladder stand my hanging on a climber with my shoulder are long gone. Seen the TideWe see through blinds on Facebook for just over $100 but past experiences had me skeptical. After doing some research I ordered 2 for my elk hunt in September because my expectations were low just need to work for a month tops.

They came yesterday so we popped it open in the front room to check it out it was as advertised just like the video it was full sized easy put up and take down I don’t know if it will ever go back in the carry bag but that’s not uncommon. LOL

Looks to be a perfect item for my next hunt I’m impressed with it.

A friend has one an likes it.
I checked it out when he set it up in his yard.
If I was a ground blind guy, I'd own several.


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

My wife won one of hteir blinds with the see-through mesh. Did not get to hunt out of it yet this year due to hercancer, etc. When in it I see ery well tothe outside and can wave my hand on the inside and not be seen. Nicely done and there may be a couple more in my future when she is able to get back into turkey hunting..

My dad and one of our hunting buddies picked a couple up cheap after season last year. They are going to be bow hunting out of them this fall, neither wanted to climb up in a tree stand so this was the obvious choice.

I have some TideWe waders and they seem decent for the price. Haven't really been able to put them to the test yet to see how they hold up, but for what I paid, I could buy a new pair every couple years for what I'd pay for some of the others out there.

I also ordered some ground blind shelves from trickoutdoors.com because I can also use them in my ice fishing shack in the winter. They're right here in WI so shipping was reasonable and fast. Haven't tried putting the shelves in the blind yet, but they seem pretty universal.

Good luck getting your elk.

I used their stocking foot waders this spring and part way through the season they basically wore through and I had rubber boots on them always. Now I bought their knock off of muck boots and have had them for over a year and wear them a lot with no issues.

The only downside to these blinds I see after two years is they mess with my eyes looking through the sides of the blind if I sit all day I start to get an eye strain headache. Also, just remember if you have an open windpw or door and move in front of it you will be seen through the walls. Any light inside can be seen from the outside so make sure not to use a phone in low light and close windows opposite the animal you are shooting at.


Life sure is tough when you don't learn from the mistakes of others.

Looks like the windows drops quietly I’ll cut a shooting stick so it’s at the right level and I will just drop one corner to shoot.
