New ASAT blind

To me it looks like the ASAT is half the size. Can you fit 2 hunters in it comfortably with gear? I still would like to know how deer react to that camo pattern.

They are the same exact size basically. So close you might as well call it anyway. Yes, plenty of room for two hunters.

I wanted to followup on my review of this ASAT blind. We logged a lot of hours in this and the DB Matrix this spring and I have to say that I like the ASAT as well or better than the DB Matrix. We had a lot of deer and turkeys near the blind, with a tom that snuck in from behind us and was only 5 ft from the ASAT. We did not expect a tom to be coming from this area as we were in an open field and he came out of a tiny little strip of timber. I had a doe come right up at 10 yds and watch my Pretty boy decoy do his walk(I rigged my pretty boy on a homemade track and he walks 4 ft and turns around and comes back at ya) The blind was not brushed in and the windows were not netted. We had lots of hens and deer near us but we couldn't get a kill bowshot on the few toms that we saw this year. Had several birds that presented easy shotgun shots, but no good bow opportunites. Our area has a poor population of toms. Anyway, awesome blind, everybit as good as quality as a DB, same no shine cotton fabric, and like I said earlier, nearly half the price. A real winner IMO. I have another on order.
