Anyone ever use one? Which is the best one? I have always been skeptical of stuff like that. I’m just a dumb ole country boy but I find it hard to believe you can see out but animals can’t see in. Like that fabric that use to say water could run out but it couldn’t run in lol

I haven't used it yet but I recently bought a Muddy Infinity II. It has see through shooting windows and I had my wife and a friend looking for me inside as I moved around and they couldn't see me so I think it will work. I'll find out in Sept Antelope hunting.

Should be good for the hot weather during antelope season, maybe give you more "ventilation" if there's a breeze? Late season deer, I might want some solid walls for a wind break?

Yup, they do not stop wind or water.

Is there a "see through blind" that is tall enough for a 62" recurve? I've been using the barronett blinds just for the height.
I would be interested in trying a see through if it was big enough for me.

Big Mike by Baronett blinds. Practice, practice, practice. You'll find the depth perception difference kinda disconcerting.

I have one we turkey hunt out of, my daughter can't sit still so we use a blind. It's a Primos double bull and yes we like it!

Keep the light low on the inside, and yes - you can see out, but the animals can't see in.
Been using the blinds with the windows like that for several years now. Although, I do not shoot through the screen.
I open the screen window just enough to get a shot out through it, and I never set in front of the opening. I set to the side (looking through the screen), then when a shot opportunity is presented I lean to the opening, and shoot.

J.R. There's really no reason to have to shoot through them.
Just only open the widow barely enough to shoot out through, and that don't take much.
It is really nice though, to set behind the screen while watching & waiting.

I like being able to see. So I may spring for one. That is what I like about treestands even though I hunt low. I can still see.

baby, if you're talking about the blinds (Primos?) where the whole blind is made of see through material, don't do it, buddy had one on an Antelope hunt a couple years ago and you could see right through it from the outside. Maybe it would be fine in a wooded, shaded area?

The BIG problem with a lot of these blinds is the screens are so large it allows for your scent to escape the blind, esp. if there is cross or back to front ventilation. I much prefer limited windows/screens and preferably none in the back of the blind and very little along the sides. But, the trend is going just the opposite way...

I agree with Bluesman. Where I hunt deer don't come near em. Think I will stick to ghillie suit and low treestands

I’ve shot at 1 deer ever through the blind . It worked perfect and I had to really look to find where the 2 bld Zwickey went through. The deer never knew anything. And it hit where I was aiming. I would have to shoot a lot of deer to wear out the screen.
But it’s only 1 shot.

The problem I see with the blinds, that are entirely the screen is - you can't keep the light low enough on thee inside.
I wouldn't use one, but the blinds that have the one way see through screen on the windows work very well.

David has a very good point about the scent drift.
To that point - I seldom open more than two windows of a bind, and never open windows on apposing sides. I control the draft through the blind as best I can.
I do crack a zipper open slightly to give me a peek hole on any side where I need one to look around me, but they are only slight opened, and left folded into the closed position. I simply hook it with my finger peel it back a bit, peek out, then fold it back to closed.

I'm sure they work fine but I don't like looking through mesh. I'll stick to open 'windows'.

Double Bull 3 sides see thru. No screens small open vertical shooting windows. Has black back ground inside on the back (4th) wall only. Wear black clothes and face mask. Worked well for me, shot a deer at 12 yds from the blind. Still have to play the wind when blind hunting.

Everyone has there own priorities. If a blind won't help keep the wind and rain off me to allow me comfortable late season hunts then I'm not for it. And as was mentioned, it has to be well brushed in, preferably for a week or so to get deer accustomed to it. Turkey could care less.

Pronghorn don't care either. I've set up a blind and shot an antelope an hour later. Deer are a different matter though.
