A few years ago, my stepson was antelope bowhunting in Northern Arizona and could not buy a position close enough to get a shot off. He did notice that the cows had no issue with getting close to the animals. Jonathan then came home after the weekend hunt and was telling me about this dilemma. We had discussed trying to make a lightweight frame covered with material and making this easy enough to carry out in the field. Jonathan the purchased some light weight rod and formed this to make the outline of a cow. We then covered the frame with a sheet, which Jonathan then took home and painted the mural of a cow on it. He tried it several time to see how it would react in the wind and if it would affect his shot prior to going back to the Prescott area.
He did get close to the antelope, but the wind prevented him from getting any shot off.
His brother in law - Rich saw this and has taken it several steps forward in production and is now mass producing these blinds. As you can see by the pictures, this will get you very close to an animal without spooking them.
