5th Series - Land Blind

SERIES FIVE – Land Blind

The temperature is 77 degrees with a south wind at 10 mph, which will be a crosswind for the Land Blind.

The mat sits atop a mound facing east. When the dog comes off the mound and they are are basically faced with a flat field. This dead rooster  is planted by a marked bush at the end of the field 256 yards from the line and approximately 60 yards in front of the trees. The field is timber lined on the left sloping slightly down hill to the right. There are two little trees at approximately the halfway point. The vegetation is a sparse grassy hay meadow with a wide keyhole to go through. This is a straight forward land blind – the main factor is the cross wind.
