    They do look great!! Might have to give them a try and add a little barbed wire around it to keep the hungry cows away. Wonder if there is something I could spray on it. You know, like "Cow Away"...
    Get a solar fence charger and put a hot wire around it. Just don't forget about the wire after a night of drinking Scotch.

        Good question! We basically draw from the email list generated from the giveaway. If you keep entering with the same email address, you won't increase your odds. However, if you have a few email addresses (or if you want to hijack your wife's!), you would then be entered as many times as you used a different email address.

        Good luck!

          I need one but before I drop $400 I wanna here from others not associated with TBH. Sorry MODs, not that I think you'd be biased, would like to hear from others who have them.

          And yes, I entered the give-away.
          First - good luck in the giveaway drawing!

          Second - If I was going to drop $400 on a product, I'd also like to here from a few others before spending hard earned money! If you're interested in hearing from some of our Texas affiliates, send me a private message, and I will try to put you in touch with them, so you can hear what they have to say about it. In the meantime, here is a link to an article in Bowhunter magazine by Tony Peterson. He reviews 10 blinds, including XENEK's Apex blind, his favorite of all time.

            I had to run a couple of strands of barbed wire around mine. Fortunately I had enough trees around that I didn't need to drive tee posts.

              Hi hogdaddy! The blind weighs 25 pounds. Box, backpack, stakes, and blind land at your front door at 31 pounds.

              The weight is listed in the specifications - https://huntxenek.com/product/xenek-...with-backpack/

              Let us know if you have any additional questions!

                    We like this " Cow Away" idea... while you're at it, can you also come up with "Bear Gone" as well?

                      Mike, I know you said you didn't give two squats about my opinion...or something like that, but I don't mind telling you these are great blinds. As far as holding up for a while, I haven't left mine out for more than a weekend because it is still somewhat new. I can tell you, having owned the Double Bull ICE, Matrix, Double Wide and other blinds of various quality, I believe if any of those will make it a season in the elements, this one will go much longer. It appears to be a very durable blind. It's greatest feature is its versatility. Man, you can really set it up custom to your situation.

                      With all that said, I should probably give you at least one negative to afford my review some objectivity. If anything, it is harder to set up than other blinds. The rigidity (taughtness, tightness, etc) of the material combined with the solid hubs makes it a bit more difficult to "pop" up than the others. However, once it is up, it's UP! I have a feeling that with more use, it will become a bit more forgiving on setup.

                      I don't think you'll be disappointed if you decide to get one.

                          Casey - Thanks for the feedback, along with the assessment of the set-up of our blind, which is spot on. The combination of having a blind that is taller than it is wide and that is made of a heavier, more durable skin makes our blind a little more difficult than some to set-up (and take-down).

                          We have developed a system for the set-up and take-down that works quite well. Instructions for this step-by-step process are sewn into the backpack, and we also have a short video that show's the process as well - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wGyqxIwbj8

                          One additional thing that may make the set-up and take-down smoother for you is to take a little tension out of the vertical webbing strap that bisects the main window.

                          Thanks again, and good luck in the remainder of your seasons!
