Chuck,
Thanks for the kind service on the phone for my order. As I said my buddy
received a T5 blind as a gift and he allowed me to use it to take my 9 yr
old daughter out for her first turkey hunt. We carried the blind in to our
spot about 200 yards from the truck. Between her and I we were able to carry
the blind, 2 chairs, 4 decoys, a back pack and her shotgun. We set up the
blind and decoys and were ready to start calling in less than 7 minutes. We
sat for about 15 minutes before I started calling. We then sat silent for
about 30 minutes before I started again. Have you ever had a 9 year old sit
still that long? of course not.... That was the beauty of the blind...she
was able to clean my binoculars several times, play with the range finder
and tell me a few stories. After the next call it all started...we got a
response about 100 yds away. we had a single tom moving in quickly. A couple
short yelps had him moving in even faster. When he topped the hill he saw
our decoys (2-hens, 2-jakes) and instantly puffed up in full strut. My
daughter said WOW dad I have never seen a turkey do that before. Why is he
acting this way? I told her because he was letting our decoys know he was
the man. I was able to get her set up and coach her on what to expect while
the tom was moving in. I would not have been able to talk her through the
hunt without the blind. She waited until the bird was within 20 yards before
she said... Daddy...I am ready... This will be one of my best all time
memories!

Thanks
