On top of that report. We may not need heated socks becuase the new enclosed stand was awesome. Need more!!!!!! Bring on the jock straps in the stand! Who needs all the layers?

The last couple days have convinced me that I either buy an enclosed blind or two, or I quit deer hunting. I'm not sitting outside in single digit or colder temps to watch does/fawns/young bucks any longer.

On a serious note, how do you handle scope/binocular fogging? Window fogging if you have single pain windows ?

On one blind I used the foam shaving cream trick and it worked pretty well this year. Never had an issue with the scope.

I am and unless I open a couple windows I'm getting fogging. I do have a spray that came with the redneck that works ok but not great at cold temps.

Also noticed if it is sunny the windows in Redneck don't fog. Also when I have camo netting that Redneck provided on the windows fog worse. Remove netting and the windows stay pretty much fog free with opposite window cracked. Having the window cracked open did not bother this deer yesterday.

one buddy heater, and a I have a couple of old Coleman BlackCat that i like a lot. The Buddy Heater puts out a lot more heat though. The BlackCat is just enough to take the edge off really. I still have to dress warm, but I don't have to bundle like I would without them.

Shadow hunter blinds have the spaces in the glass and vent holes. Once my shadow hunter warms up I have not had condensate issues. First hour or so its an issue.

So 9nce you get to temp the fogging goes away? I may have to try that. In my redneck its always bad starting out but once the glass warms up once small cracked window on the opposite side of the heater works well.

I have a friend who was building box blinds with a vent stack that he ran above tree line. It was in an effort to contain scent. Any of your guys's blinds have accommodations for scent, or are they just enclosed and sealed up?
