madmax666 Posted August 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 No I haven't sorry, it was a try and get it down quick shortly after that... they do open a bit rapid don't they and a bit of a fight to get them back in the bag the first time.

Walker570 Posted August 22, 2018 Report Share Posted August 22, 2018 (edited) They are not easy to get back in the bag the second, third , fourth or fifth times either ..... a mind of their own. I have the Bushwear Tpee and we wrestle often. BUT a great bit of kit. Edited August 22, 2018 by Walker570 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmax666 Posted August 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 (edited) Looks like I am not the only one here that leaves the brain in neutral, I tell you what like W570 says they are brill I really like the thought of sitting inside on my stool with my air rifle perched on my home made 2 green garden stick bi-pod with just a 2 pole net screen ready to do the doings on the woodies. But I have to admit I am dreading the ensuing battle to get the sodding thing back in the bag, I am visualizing the thing folded in half and tied up and trying to jam it in the back of my small Astra estate..or hack sawn into convenient size pieces...I wonder if woodies have a sense of humor. ? Yes Whitetail these are not for the indoors. MM Edited August 23, 2018 by madmax666 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

madmax666 Posted August 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2018 (edited) Hi again, well I went out early this morning with my new hide, and like said by others they are brill..plenty of room inside for my seat and stuff and me out of the wind and sun as well. I only had one woodie to the decoys but he's going with black pudding and eggs for tomorrows breakfast. The bit I was dreading came ..time to take it down and pack it, it went up in seconds but took 25 mins of fighting to get the #'#@@@### thing back in the bag, and I still don't know how I did it. Anyway a bit more practice with lots of swearing should get me down to 10 mins I think... MM Edited August 25, 2018 by madmax666 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longbower Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 I have had the T-Pee , for about six years now, and it pops away in seconds . Its just familiarity with the thing . Brill hide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once you have learned where it wants to go and make the right moves, it goes in it's bag like a well trained .......dog ...tempted to say wife. My T Pee has enabled me to ambush lots of stuff I would not have been able to. I have a Stag chair which I made a rifle rest for and the combination is pretty final for any tree rat or deer which comes within a couple of hundred yards.

Mice! Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 No pictures?? My brother had a tube of expanding foam in a tool box and a similar thing happened, took him ages getting stuff out. the wife also banned me from using expanding foam, i once sealed a front door from inside to stop the draft, so i didn't make any mess!! Have you tried getting that stuff off PVC and brickwork ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
