5 Great Layout Blinds

It used to be that when a hunter took cover on the ground, he laid on the ground and covered himself with available foliage. These days, there are layout blinds, so you don’t actually have to touch the ground and you can stay comfy warm.

If you use a layout blind, you know there are a few critical aspects that make some better than others. The following five blinds are the best available in our opinion when considering weight, space, cast shadow, functionality and comfort.
