Are there any Avery blinds that are specifically engineered for the husky hunter?
I'm about 6'2" 290 ;) and was wondering which one would hold up the best?
Thanks

The Migrator was made for those with above average appetites! I'm a big guy as well. I was always told to eat what you shoot and I do have some pretty good hunting skills and a belly to back that statement up!

You will be comfortable using any blind we make. The Migrator will probably be the best, but the Finisher and/or Power Hunter will work well also.

Brett is correct I would suggest the Migrator for a big guy. I have two friends that are close to that size and that is the blind they are using.
Thanks for the post,
Eric

I hunt out of a Finisher 90% of the time and im 6'2 and 265. Plenty of room and very comfortable, i have also hunted out of the Power Hunter and Migrator and have never had any problems fitting into these blinds.

Rick is correct that the Migrator Blind would probably be the best choice for you. But if you need to be portable, you can hunt comfortably out of either a Finisher or a Power Hunter. I hunt 95% of the time out of a Power Hunter and I am 6'4" and weigh 290 lbs. I prefer the Power Hunter because I can't always drive to my hunting spots. The Power Hunter only weighs 11 lbs. and can be set up or taken down in seconds. When folded, the Power Hunter Blind does not take up much space in your vehicle or trailer. The polymesh FlipTop allows a unrestricted 360 degree field of view. If you can, go to your nearest Avery Dealer to test drive all three of the Avery Layout Blinds to see which one fits you and your needs the best. I have attached a link to Avery's Dealer page to find a Avery Dealer close to you. Thanks for your interest in a Avery Layout Blind and welcome to the Avery Message Board.

Full- Try all three out. You would fit in all of them I think, but the Migrator is probably what you will look at.

i hunted last season 3-4 times a week out of a finisher. at the time i was 6'0" 290lbs and i had no problems at all. i like to be able to move around in the blind i am using, and i had no problems with the finisher.

Rusty,
You know what I say, "If you can't drive to the spot, there has to be another one."

Rick,
If I lived in North Dakota, I would do the same. When you live Maryland, most of the time you don't have many options.
