"Easy to put up and take down, and slips into the backpack type case easily." - C. Loop

Want to know what other customers say about the KillZone Pop-Up Ground Blind? See below for hunting blind reviews on this 1-2 man tent.

“A good buy if you are looking for a one person blind. I am six feet tall and need to duck a bit when inside, but once you’re in your seat it is perfect for a one person show. I can shoot my bow out of it no problem (just make sure you have a low stool, bucket seat, etc.), and the shoot through mesh is great for using a rifle. Easy to put up and take down, and slips into the backpack type case easily. Instructions were a little hazy, but easy to figure out once you do it a few times.”
- C. Loop

“This blind is exactly what I wanted. It is a pop up blind that sets up and collapses in seconds. If you are looking to get a ground blind look no further. Buy this now. On top of all this it showed up 2 days after ordering.”
- T. Lowman

“Works great!! I’ve read several reviews that the zippers are flimsy. While I agree they might not be heavy duty, I would not call the zippers ‘flimsy’. You just need to be careful about how tight you stretch the blind when you stake it down to the ground. You can relieve stretch in the fabric and make closing zippers easier by simply pulling the gap closed as you zip the door or windows shut.”
- Christopher H.

“I ordered a blind for me and one for a co-worker. I received them in 3 days and have both shot a bird out of them-one bow kill and one shotgun. Good product-great seller.”

Turkey blinds conceal movement and keep you dry.

There’s more than one way to hunt turkeys. Ground blinds are just one more trick to keep up your sleeve. While some hunters prefer sitting out under the base of a tree or running-and-gunning, there’s a place for ground blinds when it comes to turkey hunting, too.

Hunting in cold or rainy weather and taking squirrelly kids or a first-time hunter along are just a few reasons why you might choose to use a ground blind for turkey hunting.

Setting Up a Ground Blind

A turkey blind can increase your chances of success, or it can stick out like a sore thumb—it all depends on how you camouflage the blind.

Set up your ground blind with a backdrop behind it (such as a grove of trees) to mask the blind’s silhouette. Setting up in the shadows will also draw less attention to your blind.

Concealing Your Movements

Keep a dark backdrop behind you when you’re inside the blind. An open window behind you will highlight your silhouette and spook the turkey when you move. Make sure the window shade is closed and not just the mesh screen.

Camouflaging the Blind

Some hunters say they have turkeys walk right up to their ground blind without any hesitation. Other hunters have seen turkeys spook at the sight. Although movement spooks turkeys more than anything else, it doesn’t hurt to take a few minutes to camouflage the blind, just in case your turkeys are blind-shy.

Use dead branches and natural grasses to brush in the blind. This breaks up the outline and camouflages your blind to blend in with its natural surroundings. Don’t count on the blind’s camouflage pattern alone to keep you hidden.

Setting Up in Advance

If possible, set up your ground blind in advance. Once the turkeys get used to it, they’ll walk past without a second glance. Plus you can slip silently into the blind the morning of the hunt without making a lot of noise setting it up and scaring off any turkeys within earshot.

"Well built seat and lots of room." - Joel S.

One- and two-person portable chair blinds make it easy to get your gear into the woods, set up fast, and keep yourself hidden in prime gaming areas. Check out the hunting reviews below for what other hunters think about our chair ground blinds.

“Dad loves it! I bought this as a present for my dad, who can’t climb into tree stands anymore. When he opened it, I was very pleased with how easy it was to set up. The seat is very comfortable and well constructed. I’m not a big fan of the velcro due to the noise, but that is the only—and I mean only—negative. This is a great ground blind and will help my dad keep doing what he enjoys. I can’t wait to hear the story when he drops that big one.”
- Chris Sullivan

“Great product. Just as described, maybe better. Well built seat and lots of room. It is easy to use and portable. My dad loves it.”
- Joel S.

“I’m impressed with initial quality. I initially bought this with intentions of tearing it apart and using it to cover my outdoor motorized wheelchair. I like the blind chair so much as is, I can’t bring myself to tear it apart. I’ll have to wait for it to break or give out on me before cannibalizing it. In the meantime, I’ll just transfer from wheelchair to blind chair. While not evident in photos, all windows have removable camo bug netting. Will pair with Gorilla shooting stick (another bargain) to reduce any gun holding fatigue. Included camo backpack makes it even more of a bargain. Great product, KillZone.”
- Jay (Texas)

“Was pleasantly surprised how quickly the item arrived. Don’t know what would be different about blinds costing 2 and 3 times as much.”
- Jack S.

“The perfect portable blind for me and my 4 year old daughter. Easy packing, easy setup. Must buy.”
- Larry F.

“Very nice blind and look forward to using it this year.”
- David M.

“Great product. Very roomy and seems well constructed. Less expensive than others and does the job well. Would order again.”
- Harold Fultz, Jr.

“It arrived promptly and was a great product beyond expectations. The hunter receiving it was thrilled, and I was glad to have the opportunity to purchase a birthday present of such good quality for a great price.”
- John C.

"Big enough for 2 grown men and plenty of room to store stuff." - DGA

“This is a great blind. It is mostly waterproof, and for a brand that isn’t well known, it is just as good as a Primos. It has a good camo pattern, and I think that it is important to get a 360 blind especially if you hunt with a bow.”
- Soccerfan71 (Ravenswood, WV)

“I bought this hub as a backup to another that I have, and upon setting the pair of them up as a comparison, I’ve decided my much more expensive other unit will be my backup and this KillZone will fill the go-to blind billing. It’s well built and offers absolutely unparalleled visibility and utility. I couldn’t be happier with my purchase.”
- Pilot107

“My dad and I are enjoying this blind. It is the best one we have ever used. It has magnet attached walls, so it is quiet. Big enough for 2 grown men and plenty of room to store stuff. Well-camouflaged and is shine-resistant.”
- DGA

“I have a KillZone blind and really like it. Have had deer walk by it within 5 feet.”
- “South Georgia”

“This is a great ground blind. I have 12 total ground blinds and many costing much more than this. I am very pleased.”
- Mike M.

"This blind is a steal for the price!" - Frank Pallo Jr.

“Can’t beat the price, and it’s just as good as more expensive ones we’ve seen in local sporting goods stores. Super fast setup—brainless, really—and quick and easy take-down. Great windows, with screens. Bought a 2nd one because we were so pleased with the first. Can be used for deer or waterfowl, as the top opens up.”
- M. Koi

“Used a Brickhouse blind for years; it worked ok with the poles and velcro, but when I found this KillZone for the super price and the super quality, I am super pleased—quick setup and SILENT WINDOWS. Thanks, KillZone! Anyone who blind hunts will love this complete deal. Good luck and be safe.”
- Stikman

“I previously had a blind that opened easily but you had to manually add in 2 tent poles to prop up the roof. It was very hard to do, especially in the dark. I had been looking to purchase another blind that was bigger and easier to put up. I had been wanting to try one of those $300-$400 blinds but had read a lot of negative reviews about them. And watching YouTube videos of the process of setting them up looked extremely confusing. Also, that was another of the complaints that kept popping up on reviews of these more expensive blinds.

I found out about the KillZone Turret XL on the huntingpa.com website. i had never heard of the company, so I decided to look it up. Once I saw the video of how incredibly easy it was to set up, I was sold. Of course I was expecting this blind to run well over $300. WRONG! I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw it listed for under $100. I didn’t hesitate to order it that moment.

"Anyone who blind hunts will love this complete deal." - Stikman

The blind arrived and from the moment I opened the box I was pleased. This blind sets up every bit as easily as the video shows. I had it out of the bag and set up in about 2 minutes. When I crawled inside I was even more pleased. I found 2 large pockets for storage. Small details make the difference! As I start playing around with the windows, I see that the side vertical windows have the mesh with the slit to slide a gun out of. Beautiful! I’m thinking, I wish the mesh came off for bowhunting. And what do you know…they are held on with velcro. I ripped them off and put them in the inner storage pockets. Also, on the outside there are straps all the way around to add branches to help break up the silhouette. Incredible!

This blind is a steal for the price! I truly can’t believe I found such a quality blind that is so easy to set up, has great features (big and small) that make this blind worth its weight in gold. And it won’t break the bank. KillZone has made an incredible product and priced it for every hunter. Kudos, guys! Love your Turret XL!”
- Frank Pallo Jr.

“You can’t beat the price of the blind. It is better in person than in the picture. Setup really only takes about a minute. I’m exited to shoot my first deer out of it.”
- Matt Harmon

“Great looking blind and sets up easy. Just tape the zippers so they don’t make noise. The blind like all the others needs better ground stakes. But will use my own tent pegs instead.”
- Dannie W.

“Came as expected and very easy to assemble and take down. Seemed very solid and made nice for the price. Grandchildren like it as well. Set it up in the living room and they thought they were camping and slept in it.”
- M. Keyes

“I shopped retail stores and online and this blind was by far the best quality and best price. My son-in-law put it up in the yard as soon as he opened it.”
- Debbie S.

A ground blind keeps you warm and dry.

With the growing popularity of ground blinds, hunters now have more options for bagging their prey. Although some hunters claim that hunting from an elevated stand is far superior to hunting from the ground, there are plenty of hunters who have found that keeping their feet on the ground and their head protected from the rain is much more comfortable and just as successful as tree stand hunting.

The key to successful ground blind hunting is staying hidden. Since you’re right on eye level with your game, you need to make the extra effort to camouflage your blind and set it up in a place where the animals are less likely to approach the blind head on. Use dead branches and brush to camouflage the top and sides of the blind.

One of the benefits of ground blind hunting is that you stay warmer in cold weather and get protection from the wind, rain, snow, and other elements. While most tree stand hunters pack up when the rain moves in, you can stay warm and dry in your hunting blind in almost any weather.

Because of the size and concealment that a ground blind offers, you can pack in more stuff, video the hunt from inside the blind, and bring along a friend or family member. Being able to move around inside the tent without giving yourself away makes it easier to wait and allows you to bring along fidgety children.

When you or someone you know has a close call with a tree stand accident, you might think twice about climbing into a tree again. A ground blind lets you stay safe while you hunt. It also makes it possible for disabled hunters to stay hidden and lets older hunters continue to hunt well into their later years.

Set up your ground blind before the hunt to allow deer to get used to it.

Thanks to The Hunting Channel Online for these tips on hunting from a ground blind!

Before the Hunt

Get the ground blind out as early in the season as you can. If you hunt on private land, ask permission to set up the blind a few weeks before your first hunt. Brush it in as best you can. Once the deer get used to your blind, they won’t suspect a thing when you get into position on the morning of the hunt.

Placement

Set up your blind off to the side. This increases your chance of a broadside shot and keeps deer from looking directly into your blind as they come down the trail.

Camouflage

Don’t expect the camouflage pattern on your ground blind to do all the work. You need to break up the outline of the blind with natural brush, deadfall, and other vegetation. The more your hunting blind blends in with the setting, the less likely you will get busted sitting in the blind.

Windows

Don’t get caught with a silhouette by letting too much light into the blind. The black interior of the blind is designed to swallow your shadow, but if you open both the front and back windows of the blind, you leave yourself wide open for a bust. Always keep a dark backdrop behind you.

Scent

Cover your scent. Synthetic odors from the blind fabric are a dead giveaway. Make sure you air out the blind before you set it up in the woods. Hardcore hunters also mud up their blinds for a natural smell that covers up the factory smell of plastic.

This KillZone customer strategically placed his blind to blend in with the surrounding landscape.

Want to keep both feet on the ground for your next hunt? Whether you’ve had a close call with a tree stand or you just don’t like hunting 8 feet up, a pop up ground blind can give you the advantage you need to stay concealed while you hunt from the ground. Here are some tips on how to hunt successfully from a ground blind.

Placement

The best way to hide your ground blind is to place it in front of a backdrop that is taller and wider than the blind—for example, a clump of trees or thick, tall brush. The stark outline of a hunting blind highlighted against the sky is a dead giveaway. Try to break up the outline by blending it in with the landscape and by filling the brush loops with natural vegetation.

If you are hunting on private land, get permission to set up the blind early. Setting up your blind at least two weeks early allows deer and other game to get used to the blind. By the time you are ready to hunt, they’ll be comfortable with the ground blind and unsuspecting of your presence.

Camouflage

If your ground blind is brand new, let it air out before your first hunt. Get the factory smell out of it, and let it naturalize. For more effective camouflage, try mudding up the blind to dull any shine and make it blend in better with the landscape.

Visibility

Camouflage mesh lets you see out without letting game see you. It also prevents the “black hole” effect that happens when the window is wide open. A gaping black void in the midst of brush and trees can spook your game. When the sun is low on the horizon and shining directly on your blind, it can be difficult to see out through the mesh. For a clearer view, let down a corner of the mesh for a peek hole.

Practice

Practice setting up your ground blind before opening day. You don’t want your first time setting up the blind to be in the dark. Practice taking the blind down, as well. If you stay out past sunset, you’ll be glad you did. Fumbling around with a ground blind in the dark is hard enough without having to read the instructions at the same time.

The Body Block Ground Blind is extremely portable.

Want concealment without lugging a full ground blind into the woods? A 3-sided panel blind may be just the answer. A panel blind is one of the most portable blinds available. At only 10″ x 1″, it’s small enough to fit in the pocket of your turkey vest for hands-free carrying.

What can you use a panel ground blind for?

You can use a panel blind for almost any type of big game or small game hunting. Turkey hunting is one of the more popular uses for a panel blind, but is can also be used for deer hunting and other game.

How can I make it more comfortable?

One of the trade-offs for extreme portability is a loss of comfort and concealment. Since the blind is low to the ground, you will need to sit on the ground rather than on a hunting chair. Bring along a padded stadium chair or foam cushion for softer seating. Most hunters lean up against a tree trunk for a backrest. The tree trunk also provides concealment on a fourth side.

How do I set up the ground blind?

Carefully remove the ground blind from the bag. Hold one of the three rings and let the other two pop open and unfold. Stake the blind down to stabilize it in windy conditions. To fold the blind, remove the stakes and fold the panels over each other until you have one panel circle. Overlap the rings to form a single set of rings. Then twist the panel in a figure eight until it makes a smaller 3-ring panel. Pack the folded disc into the carrying bag, and you’re ready to go!
