Purchasing a new ground Blind

Looking to get new ground Blind wondering what you guys prefer for the 360's. (turkey mostly and some whitetail, archery and gun)

I'm currently looking at the :

DB double wide for $399
Primos blind luck for $249.99
Rhino xp-1 predator for $199

I've hunted out of the old DB's and liked them, so are the primos ones just as good? Big differences between the Db and the blind luck? And for the $$ the rhino sounds good but I've never been around one so not sure of the material or durability, but could get 2 for the price of one DB.

Anyone have any others they would recommend and where to purchase for best deals?

Thanks.
 
I hunt from a Primos "The Club XL" and I have nothing but good things to say about it. I do A lot of bow hunting which is why I got the XL version. It has an amazing amount of room. Also it has great shooting windows. Before that I had a Scheels Boondocks. It was also an excellent blind, the only reason I didn't get another is because they are no longer sold in stores. But if I could find one somewhere I would definitely latch on to it. I liked it because it had magnets to hold the windows up so you could keep them unziped and quietly take them down when need be.

If I couldnt get a hold of a doube bull dark horse for the $200-$250 range new I would then go rhino xp-1. The new dbl bull i like the back windows a bit better but dont think that blind is worth $200 more than a dark horse or xp-1.
 
I have a blind called the Grounder 150 I picked up at last year for around 70 bucks. freaking awesome blind. Plenty of room. I'd check it out!
 
I have a primos predator den and a dark horse. Bought the predator den for 120 last year at cabelas. It's a good blind and has the magnets on the windows, but IMO it's hard to beat the dark horse.

Kinda what I was thinking but its hard to find. Found a few places that have it for $299. U know anyplace that had um in the $200-$250 range?
 
Cabelas has good sales on blinds right now. I just bought the True Timber Pentagon blind. I got it for more than half off. The blind is big and the windows open and closing using hooks and loops, so no velcrow is pretty nice too. If you look around at the big retail websites or go into a store in your area you'll find some great deals this time of year, and many of the websites have free shipping.

Check archerytalk every once in a while you can find them on there for a good price. That's where I got my dark horse.
 
I have two dark horses. my favorite blind I've ever been in. every time I find one on sale I try to pick it up.
 
Bone collector has a blind out thats shaped like the DB with shoot through mesh its somewher between 99-149 cant remember for sure, ill have to look it up and post again.
 
I have the Primos Club blind as well. Easy up and down and tons of room for the bow. I only wish it had magnets. Cost 150.
 
Go with the Double Bull, try to find a Dark Horse brand new. I wouldn't hesitate to spend $400 for the Double Wide I just wouldn't ever leave it outside. We buy cheaper blinds like Ameristeps to leave up all season then use the DB for turkeys where we're packing in and out every hunt.
 
Ok so I think it's down to the rhino xp1 that would be $199-promo code discount+shipping for $243ish or the blind luck from cabelas would be $249-$50(gift card)-$25(cabelas cash)-$20(purchase over$200)+ free shipping for $155ish. I've read that the blind luck is essentially the same as the dark horse but with a crappy warranty through primos, whereas the cs and warranty for the rhino is lifetime. I can always use the cabelas $$ for something else, so which is the way to go here? Too bad cabelas doesn't sell them both :(

Out of the blind luck or xp-1 i would pick the xp-1 all day long. The material is much better. It is like the double bulls. The blind luck may look like a dark horse but in my opinion the material is nowhere close. I did see at one time in archerytalk some of the dealers had great deals on the xp-1 and i thought the shipping was minimal and the blind was $199.99.
