See Thru Blinds

Looking at the Tidewe, see thru blind. Big sale. For pop ups, any pros or cons on the see thru styles?

I have no experience with it, other than to note that the 50% off sale seems to be their everyday price.

I just picked up one of the smaller ones from the Tidwe sale... couldn't not try it for the price. Hoping to give it a shot for spring turkey.

My buddy has a see through and used it this year during deer season and really liked it. He shot a couple from it and so did his young son.

No experience with that brand, but a big fan of the see through type blinds in general.

I bought one sent it back you can see though both ways

I have hunted out of my buddies a couple times ad they are O for there price. I just couldn’t get used to the open view. Always felt the deer could see me. Give me a 360 Double Bull style anyway.

Bought a Double Bull Surround View blind last year. Compared to my older Double Bull Dark Horse it’s a PITA to set up, but absolutely love the 180° see thru.

I just purchased one of the Tidwe ones. Anyone ever use a see through for antelope hunting? I feel like I always keep it as dark as possible in there so they dont see me. I like to keep a window open and not shoot through mesh. Wondering if they will have a better chance of seeing me.

I just purchased a Tidewe as well Watched some reviews on You tube and 1 review had a link with a discount code Was skeptical at first but went to Tidewe website and they had the 3-4 person blind for $144 and when I entered the code it dropped it to $118.90 and with tax it came to $126 and change so I pulled the trigger on one Got it in around 4 days and set it up and it seems to look great At the price point I figured what the heck Antelope hunted numerous times out of blinds and wanted to try a see thru so not constantly peeking thru side slits Time will tell on the goats this fall but it's first trial will be on turkeys in a week or 2

I forgot to mention I went with the bigger blind because of the larger footprint for extra room and specifically for the height as all my other blinds I could not stand up without being hunched over When sitting in a blind for hours on end waiting for antelope being able to move around some and stand will definitely be a plus

Don’t hunt late season deer you will freeze See threw blinds are good for bear , turkey and early deer Wind rips right threw them and you will freeze in late season Better choices in my opinion

Has anyone painted the inside walls with black fabric spray paint? Supposed to make it easier to see out of plus gives you a darker back drop.

I have one it's great for turkeys you cannot "see through both ways" that's not true.I don't use blinds for big game so I don't know about antelope etc but it's awesome for turkeys

Watch the first portion of this video to see what is bad about see through blinds. I have no idea how you kill anything being lit up like that in a blind. The Surroundview Max I have doesn't have anywhere near the amount of see through material that this blind has. Personally, wouldn't own a blind that lights you up this much.

Bowfreak you can't hunt humans maybe being lit up.I think it's a spatial visualization thing with turkeys they must not see anything but a big square.If the windows are down Im sure anything can see movement inside.

Not really sure what you mean 4Nolz about hunting humans but I would never get my bow drawn in a blind that looks like someone is shining a spotlight on you where I hunt.

I meant a person can look at both levels and process it so the light inside is more of an issue than something like a turkey
