Curious your thoughts on the amount of time prior to hunting to install a ground blind prior to the season? Secondly how far do you place a blind from water to hunt with a bow?
Last season I procured access to private AG and set up my double bull blind on water 7 days prior to the season starting and the antelope stayed about 100 yards from that water every sit. I kept the windows low and entered the blind in the dark and still had no success.
Curious how long prior to hunting you put your blind in and any other tips and tricks? I did buy the information booklet put out by Jace Bauserman (Bowhunting the Prince of the Plains) which includes some great info. But I plan to give it another go with the bow this year and hope to kill my first archery goat.
Side note: I tried using a cow decoy and an antelope decoy and these lopers are highly pressured. They ran to the next county at the first sign of movement from hundreds of yards out.
