Ground blind Whitetail Tips/Tricks??

.I want to master bowhunting whitetails out of a ground blind. Looks like the easiest way to film and most exciting and in your face type of hunting. I know the importance of brushing in etc and that same day setups are hard to pull off. I have thought of putting up my blind in preseason, brushing a pocket around the blind, and then removing the blind. This way when it comes time to hunt, I have this little brush pocket that the deer have already been used to seeing, and all I do is slip my blind into the pocket. I could have brush pockets setups all over the woods for different wind setups. I would just keep the window area free of sticks and actually use some decent sized sticks/brush so there is some longgevity to these pockets. This way, I just have a little maintenance to keep these pockets working.
What do you think? Any successful portable groundblinders advise that the Double Bull videos haven't covered would be appreciated.

Edit: I have two DB's and plan on getting two of these ASAT blinds so that Sarah and I can each have two. I have hunted turkeys a lot out of blinds and have had some close encounters with deer too. I just want to master it. Ground blind hunting is still in it's baby stages(portable blinds) compared to treestands, so I know there is a lot to learn.
 
Well where i come from they just letting us hunt it trees a couple years back so on that note. I find that is better to make your posts this time of year and leave them set all year they see to take nice color and have a chance to benefit from the leaves falling for a natural camoflague. The deer also learn abnormalities in there pattern and learn to deal with it. We always build stand three years before we intend to sit in them but we are weird. have fun
