Primos Double Bull Blind/Hide

You may remember that i mentioned that i had ordered a new blind a few weeks ago, Its sat in its bag since it arrived although i did quickly put it up in the apartment which pretty much filled the living room, Primos double bull blinds are pretty much the Rolls Royce of blinds here in the States, Not cheap compared to others but you can feel the quality, Its not canvas but feels similar, I have read a few reviews where there are complaints about getting it up but if you have had a cube type blind before you will know how to put one up in a couple of minutes, When its set up all the sides are very rigid so no flapping about in the breeze, The thing i like about the double bull is that the windows are silent rather tan zips and velcro, The front and sides have a pull up continuous window with some camo netting and the back has windows with a clip up black flap, There are windows in the roof as well so good if you are getting hot or want to shoot say a woodpeckers nest,The blind is pretty big and you can easily have 2 or 3 guys shooting at the same time
Comes in a handy carry bag

3/4 view showing front and side pull up window and back windows

Door is on a corner

Strong construction

Individual windows on back have a clip up silent window cover

Windows in roof

This is a quality well thought out product that i am sure will stand the test of time, The only thing that i would like is a window or two at ground level but as these are designed for hunters thats not going to happen

Bio's

David Courtenay, a self taught wildlife and nature photographer, has been capturing images for over 30 years. He has had a passion for wildlife since early childhood and remembers being glued to the television whenever Survival, Wildlife on One and other natural history documentaries were shown. In the 2006 he swapped his established career for the life of a wildlife photographer, such a move demands a measure of uncompromising passion and commitment.

David has travelled extensively throughout Europe as well as spending more than 7 months in India working with local guides and trackers in search of Bengal Tiger, Asian One horned Rhino and Asian Elephant. He has also photographed Wildlife in Australia, Malaysia, Thailand, Sumatra, Africa, Canada and America. Working closely with Conservation companies he tries to raise funds to help Wildlife that has been put on the endangered list by poaching and habitation loss

Martin Dyer has had a passion for avian wildlife since childhood, particularly raptors. Photography was also another keen interest and it was with the specific availability and control of the whole process that digital offers that Martin was then able to combine the two in 2003. Based in the UK, Martin is a regular visitor to Scotland, specifically the Isle of Mull to watch the Eagles resident there. Other trips to Europe and around the UK are usually part of Martin’s agenda in a typical year.

However, as a firm believer on making the most of the local patch, Martin has spent a lot of time and hard work creating a wildlife garden which is reaping the rewards with many new species and varieties of wildlife. A keen member of a number of wildlife photographic groups, Martin is keen to expand his portfolio into other areas of wildlife, and has already established a wide portfolio of images of fungi.
