Rattling for bucks

good deal on the doe.......one shot and lotsa viddles! Congrats to your buddy!

Is your blind the 360 Matrix? Dude, I had to practice at home a couple times and watch a video before I got very good with mine.

Curious why the walls won't stay out.......do you think its the way you put it up, or something is broke? Is Jon gonna be able to show you how to set it up for next time? Also, when it is folded up, it will seem as if it is inside out....this is normal.

Cool deal on the Whitetails man, sounds like the 'Outdoorsman Edition' club could grow.
On that note, today at my kids ballgames, I was warming the truck and waiting for the family when some dude in a camo jacket walked past my door along the side of my truck, I watched him in my side mirror and when he got to the whitetails he almost fell down trying to twist his head to see the whitetail decals..........I tell you what, sock may have to start sending release of liability forms with these things before someone sues......maybe need a license plate that says "not responsible for accidents due to staring".lol

Good luck tomorrow hunters.....stay safe!

 

well, im not exactly sure which db blind it is. it may be the 360. it looks alot like the one in the vids i have seen...................and i gotta say 7 seconds my ass!!! i replaced 2 broken poles in it........but im honestly not sure why the sides wouldnt stay popped out. oh well.......the camo rope is holding it great. im letting it sit where its at until wednesday, cause im gonna hunt it then..................letting it sit there and air out for a few days. and to be honest again, as much of a bitch as it was to get opened..........i may just leave the damn thing on the land as it is. its in a great spot. only thing i'd need to do once in a while is clean brush or debris off of it.

 

look like this?

 

i do believe that is it hoosier!!! i know i need to do some adjustments on it, but it'll work as is for now.

 

when you get ready to close it, this is how it should collapse.........

stand in front of one side and push down the top panel, then push in the left then right panel(in any order right to left is ok), then push in the panel in front of you which will cause the blind to fall flat towards you, the far side will be laying on top of the blind covering the entire blind. It should still be humped up a little then all you do is push down the middle on the final side while reaching to the edge farthest from you and pulling it to you, then pull all the legs in together to where they will meet, basically turning the blind 'inside out'.

Set up is not exactly the opposite of the collapse, but close.

Clear as mud?

 

yeah buddy.....got it!

actually, jon will be coming down in january or february to do some work on his truck, so we will look at it then.........then im gonna get the ins and out of it squared away for sure. i had no problem closing it............thats because while trying to put it up......damn thing closed itself about 5 or 6 times. then i kicked it for about an hour til it gave up and popped out!! it was a nightmare. and excuse the expression..........but i looked like a damn monkey f'n a football trying to set that thing up!!

 

Wish we had the trail cam set up for that entertainment!!!

I found it, yessss! Open up the link at the bottom that says: setting up your Matrix

thanks for the link man. i saw the youtube seven second setup vids............good for that guy!!! if you had me on camera....i guarandamntee ya ya'll woulda been laughing your butts off!!!

 

yep, found the youtube setup also....no good at all.....the link I gave you is much much better!

 

damn!!! that dude made setup look easy. i reckon im gonna try and get the walls actually "popped" out tomorrow, instead of being tied with the rope!! i appreciate the link Ben!

 

well......im gonna hit the sack. installing a new sub floor today after hunting in my father in laws house bedroom wore me out!!! see ya'll tomorrow!!

 

no prob, let me know how it goes....

 

Oh I should say will, that he does make it look easy, but watch it several times and listen to every word. Such as when he says to 'cup' the hub with your hand before you push out. Don't 'grip' it, its a 'pinch point'.

 

So I have been sitting on this buck all season trying to figure out his routine and this guy goes and kills him. The guy said that he just walked straight to him, no cover scent, no nothing. He has been avoiding me all year. Congrats to the guy for killing him, he sure would have looked nice on my wall with an arrow on his horns. I hunt on the military base here and had no idea they grew them like this. I wasn't going to tell anyone about him.

 

Congrats Longbow! Great looking buck.

 

Nice buck for sure......do you know the guy? And what is up with the survivor buff, has he been on the show?

Get right back after them, can't see no battle wounds on that buck, he may not be the bruiser around there. Did he shoot him in the head? Maybe shot a leg too?

 

I noticed that when I looked at him, he must just be the "pretty boy". He didn't have any tips knocked or anything. I have only seen the guy a time or two. LOL I wanted to ask him about the rag, but didn't want to make him ill. Yeah he sprayed him with some 00 buck, tore him up.

 

yeah....i found out the hard way...........it pinched me pretty good....blood blister and all.

i decided to get back on...........i forgot, but im going to watch my little neices get baptized in the am..........so im gonna skip the morning hunt. i'll go in the afternoon!

 

hey man....i recognize that guy, and he is from survivor!

tell the guy congrats on that buck bro!!

 

Are you serious? I might need to get an autograph!
