DOES anyone make a ground blind with a floor to keep out critters?
That's super smart...I honestly never thought of that. How big of a piece do you use?? And do you just leave it there when you set the blind up, or pack it every time?Critters will just chew anything u use. I do use a small piece of carpet in front of me in case I kneel to shoot
I get a piece about 3X4 of the indoor/outdoor carpet type. Its thin and light and rolls up well. When I leave the blind I roll it up and stand it up in a corner. Works great.That's super smart...I honestly never thought of that. How big of a piece do you use?? And do you just leave it there when you set the blind up, or pack it every time?
Lol, that’s an old wives tale. I used to catch illegal aliens who thought the same thing. Some aliens used to sleep on the railroad tracks in between the rails because they thought the snakes wouldn’t slither over. I remember 7 of them one night getting plowed over by a Union Pacific train. Sad but true.My grandmother told me many years ago that if you encircle your area with rope it will keep the snakes out as they don‘t like to slither over the rough surface!

Now that’s interesting. Honestly who knows, I know that if I was half as smart as I think I am I truly would be dangerous! ??Yeah I know old wives tail. Oh man run over by a train that’s a tough way to go!
She also told me when you cut a rattlesnake’s head off they don’t die until sunset haha. Actually thought there might be some truth to that one as I remember reading some snake stories as a kid; one being a rancher that cut a rattlesnake’s head off in his backyard and it was coiled up headless at his back door a couple hours later. Still gives me the creeps to this day lol…

7 aliens? Shoot I'm glad the train got them little green suckers! What did they look like?Lol, that’s an old wives tale. I used to catch illegal aliens who thought the same thing.

It’s not a pretty sight, trains roll human flesh up into a ball of mass meat, you can’t tell if it’s male or female. I once pulled an imbed human tooth out of a railroad tie with my leather man.7 aliens? Shoot I'm glad the train got them little green suckers! What did they look like?

I knew a guy in South Texas who hunted white tails by opening up his bathroom window and shooting them in his back yard. I kid you not. To each their own.Glad you got back on topic…. I hunted from a blind in Texas that had a floor, (lots of snakes there). Had shock cord poles and ….. I’ll see if I can get a brand and a picture
This one was set up about 150 yards from a pond that was for cattle and an occasional Nilgai. We didn’t see either. A couple turkeys and several Javelina. Zero whitetailsI
