Set up the blind with your back to the sun for the best view through the mesh.

Some hunters swear by the camouflage provided by shoot through mesh and others prefer to hunt without it. The shoot through mesh on most blinds, including KillZone blinds, is removable, so you can hunt whichever way you like or switch in the middle of a hunt.

When using the shoot through mesh, it’s best to set up your hunting blind so that your back is to the sun or your blind is in the shade. Direct sunlight shining on the mesh can make it hard to see outside, especially during sunrise or sunset.

If you’re shooting with a firearm, leave a corner section of the mesh open to allow room for the gun barrel to stick out the window. (Note: Some blinds also include horizontal slits in the mesh for gun barrels.)

Never shoot through the mesh with a firearm. It’s a fire hazard and will easily destroy the mesh. It also fills the blind with smoke.

Bowhunters can shoot directly through the mesh, except when using mechanical broadheads. These types of broadheads can open prematurely, mess up the accuracy of the shot, and leave gashes in the mesh. Only shoot through the mesh with fixed broadheads.
