Best Deer Blinds

I am looking to purchase my first deer blind and have been drawn to the Ram Blinds due to their affordability and overall design. However, I wanted to see what other's experiences are.
 
I have a Ram I got from Menards a few weeks ago and hopefully will get it out this weekend.Theres the best and there the best for the price.Two completely different blinds
 
I built my own. I could get a better permanent blind for less. I think there is a thread under build stuff with pics.
 
Buy once, cry once. I have multiple 360 hunting blinds, and several other unnamable brands. 360 has the best windows, and that's what's most important with a blind. Ed Weaver would be your dealer in the Illinois area, he's a good friend of mine.

 
I'm in a warm climate. I don't need insulation and cooling is more important the heating for most of our season. So, i don't use actual commercial type windows. One thing I find important in a blind is keeping it dark inside so movement is concealed. So, one of the things I do is to build push out windows that are solid and act as a shade. I just use 4x4s for the supports with cross bracing. I use T111 type paneling for the walls. I used ondura for the roof and slant it toward the back. I've built them several different sizes, 8x8, 8x6, 6x6. 8x8 is large enough to take 2 kids easily and 8x6 works well with one kid. The 6x6 work well for a single hunter.

I just purchased 3 of the 360 Shootin' House blinds from Sisk Wildlife Products in Pekin IL. Great guy and a great blind.

I looked at the popular "big name" blinds in person and some of the lesser named blinds via websites and youtube. Once I paid a visit to my local dealer and I could physically see the 360 and sit inside one I was sold. Like you I also like the slide up window design which eliminates the flashing caused by reflection you can get when you open a hinge style window. Plus with the window system you never have to place your hands in front of the windows to open them.

Can't wait to get my hands on them and get them set up!

Im interested in hearing your further analysis once you hunt out of them!
 
Curious what your opinion is on the 360 brand? Any issues or regrets?
In my biased opinion they are the best hunting blind for sale today. The number one reason; they have the best window system. Their double windows are my favorite, where you can have a clear or a tinted window. Their powder coated steel towers are nicer and heavier gauge than about anyone else's as well. And their almost nationwide dealer network is pretty solid customer service.
