Snow Blind Cover

[longbeard34]

Just wondering if anyone knows how to make your own snow blind cover out of white bed sheets or something? I know you can buy them for about 70 bucks but just wondering if anybody has made their own? Any tips or advice appreciated

go to walmart, get a fitted white bedsheet for a twin bed i think is the size you want.

cover your blind with it, then slice some holes here and there to zip tie it to your stubble straps including over your blind doors. then take a scissors and make the cuts necessary to create flaps that will allow your doors to open.

another trick to this is to wash the bedsheet with some hunting detergent to knock down the uv in the sheet.

you could also try that snow spray used for x-mas tree and window flocking but I would test it out first and see if it comes off easy after its been applied. just a idea I had

Fitted mattress pads have worked better than sheets for us. They have some texture to them. A little more durable than sheets. Have seen them side by side with cheap sheets as covers. The sheets "glowed" with a blueish tint and the mattress pads did not.

a good mist of snow spray over the bed sheet will really knock the blue tint down.

We've used canvas painter's dropcoths to hide among the decoys when there's snow on the ground. Fold it in half on the ground so half is under you and half above, with the open side on your right if you're right handed. To shoot, throw it off with your left hand and swing the gun up with the right. I've also put the tarp over the plastic toboggan that I haul decoys with so I don't press down into the muddy field.

We where in a pinch a few years back and went to Target and picked up white shower curtians the inside liner kind.

They worked well and are nice and easy to dry and store. They take up little space and we keep them right in our blinds.

I noticed the same thing.

Snow flocking does work, if you are working with patchy snow, not a blanket of snow. The only issue is the cans tend to freeze up quickly if your doing it outside in the cold conditions. Which to answer the question of does it come off? Yes it does quite easily, so spraying your blind down and then transporting it is really not an option.

Carpshooter has it nailed!! Get some dirt to dirty it up a bit too....not too much, but just a little.
