Designed to suit a wide variety of environs, Millennium Treestands has introduced the ground-based GB100 Buck Blind. A luxury option, the GB100 boasts a heavy-duty powder-coated steel frame built with SteelTough construction and SilentHunt design to keep it quiet. It also feautres a water-resistant exterior shell, and a seven-foot interior height for total mobility.
A cut above pop-up blinds in terms of durability, the GB100 certainly has no chance of blowing away. Weighing in at 83 pounds, with a 7.3'X4' footprint, the blind can even be staked-in using the included ground stakes, or secured to a platform. For visibility, each of the windows can be configured for hunting with a rifle, crossbow or vertical bow, and each window has an adjustable shooting rest. Even the door doubles as a window, so hunters can see what’s happening behind them. Black windows and an all-black interior provide hunter concealment.
The GB100 has loops on the outside of the heavy-duty water-resistant soft-shell fabric for brushing it in to help break up its outline. For more information, please visit millenniumstands.com. MSRP: $427.99
