Question

what are the different ways being used to attach killer weed to lay down blinds so as not to loose some of it every time you hunt?

There are many ways to attach KillerWeed to blinds. I personally just tie the strands to the CamoStraps. If you put a good knot in it, you don't loose very much.

I have heard of others zip tying it, attaching it to hose, attaching it to clothespins.

Thanks,

I have only used one method to attach KillerWeed to my CamoStraps. I use a cinch loop. I use KillerWeed in bunches the size of a dime. I fold my KillerWeed in half to form a loop. I then slide the loop under the CamoStrap. After the loop is in position, I take the loose ends of the KillerWeed and place it thru the loop and pull the loose ends until it cinches down. Using this method, my KillerWeed remains secure, but can be removed quickly and easily if your are changing fields. I have Power Hunters that have KillerWeed in place from September of 2004. This is a suggestion. I am sure there will be other effective suggestions posted. I hope this helps.

One of the best ways I have heard was to zip tie bundles together and attach them to the camo straps with clothes pins or large paper clips. This makes the KillerWeed super easy to take on and off.

I used zip ties last year. This year in ND, Rick and I were getting some blinds ready for a hunt and we tied it on as he normally does. It was super easy and the KillerWeed stayed on very well.

I normally use the Rick method and it works well for me.

I'm not too concerned about how to tie the killerweed on the blinds, but I am concerned about when I will receive it. I ordered mine from Mack's Prairie Wings about two months ago and it's still backordered. Any idea when they might get some?
