Diggers Posted February 5, 2010 Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 Hi all, im asking you guys have used a Ameristep Hayhouse blind(Hide), do you think they are any good, i have heard good and bad things about them, one thing it is meant to be a bitch to fold up, any feed back would be very greatful. i am looking for 1 to buy aswell so if any of you got one to sell let me know. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lez325 Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 I had a similar make to the one you name- they are a Bitch in the wind- be better off with some decent army camo nets and 4 hide pole to be honest & save yourself some money to boot Just my opinion Les Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bothbarrels Posted February 6, 2010 Report Share Posted February 6, 2010 my mates got one similar, he recons its got a restricted all round vision, Totally agree with the other comment....building your own hide is fun in itself and it adds another string to your field craft skills!

chubbs45 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 used to have one of these and the best thing i ever did was sell it , nightmare in the wind cant see ****** all and took longer to fold up and put away than it does to dismantle a set of poles and nets , i also found it was very restrictive as to where you could use it as the shape is permanent so no way to vary it to suit your needs . chubbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David59 Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 I have a model in the shape of straw bundle for more than 10 years. The model which I have has a plastic flat bottom, aluminum armatures and especially a painting(cloth) it cordura seal(quench). I am going to look if I can put a photo. There is of what to fix to the ground, and I added a systeme as for a tent. With a wind up to 60 kph there is no problem. I see only advantages in this hide, but I look for a other one for years unsuccessfully. There is on the site of cabelas, but it does not seem to be the same quality. I paid a little more than 400£ 10 years ago , and there was only 2, I have never revised it since... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
