anyone ever use a regular deer blind for ducks?

[Robhuntandfish]

Ive got a large deer blind that i dont really use.  Well cause its so large.  But it is the perfect color for the swamp and am thinking i might be able to use for a duck blind and leave my decoys in it.  Obviuosly cant shoot overhead but am thinking sitting shooting should have a decent area to shoot. Note: total duck novice here.  Just trying to get into it for next year after deer gun season for a day or two.

Brush it in with natural stuff and try it. I like using stuff I already own for purposes they were not really intend for opposed to buying something new.  

As you mentioned, your going to  limit your shooting radius in that blind, but it may work out ok.  I've only duck hunted a few times with some buddies and we just stuffed the boat in the weeds. Had a great time.

Set it up, sit in it with an unloaded shotgun, and practice swinging on “birds”. You will know the answer in seconds.

i think this might happen this weekend. Season is over and prep begins.  Hoping to get out for some work on the land too.

Trying to swing on a duck from inside that blind would be like trying to flycast for trout from inside an outhouse....<<grin>>.....
