I also had the Doublebull T-2 blind, in fact I had two of them and they both got stole. I tired a few others and was not happy with any until I got a Rhino XP-1 Blind. I looked at a shitload of blinds at the ATA show and found the Rhino to be as good if not a bit better than Doublebull Blinds, I ordered an XP-1 and have been extremely happy with it.
Plus it is very reasonable in price.

I usually hunt from my DB Matrix blind and love it. A few weeks ago I hunted with my nephew out of his DB Dark Horse blind and Iwas very impressed with it also. I also have a DB T-2 but I rarely use it cause the others set up just as fast and have so much extra room.

I usually am up in a tree but when I use a blind it's my Ameristep Doghouse. It's not the biggest but it sets up easy and is spacious enough for me and my crossbow.

I have the amerstep G3 and it is plenty big and very easy to see from

I got an $80 5 sided Hub blind from Sportsman's Guide. It has more shoot through windows than I'll ever use. Very well made. They did have a video of it on their web site. Plenty big enough for 2 people or lots of stuff. I can't see paying 3 or 4 times that for a "Big Name" blind.

I've used the standard hub style blinds for deer and turkey(not with xbow) and now have 2 custom blinds.

1st is http://www.hiddenhunterblinds.com/default.asp
I own the 5x5 blind-had to add mesh window cover-in hind sight I should have gotten 6x6 for xbow-I was not hunting with xbow much then , mostly pistol, ml and shotgun.


Second blind I own is from Luckys Blinds- http://www.luckyshuntingblinds.com/
actually I own 2 of these-the Silhouette Eliminator Tree & Ground Blind and the Texas special.

The Silhouette Eliminator is great for moving from one treestand to another. and extra brackets can be pre mounted
The Texas special is really good for xbow/pistol/ml/shotgun-I added his slide curtains for the middle windows.

Each of these 3 blinds are better than any hub blind in my opinion. Your not going to find these in any sporting goods store or discount web site nor are you going to have either of them break like I've had pop ups and hub blinds do.
I also have used the Chameleon blind-good for reg bow or pistol/shotgun but easily fails when used a lot. not suited for xbow

I made my own blind out of 1 1/4 pvc and camo material. Made it specifically for hunting with a rifle, although it wouldn't be hard to make one for xbow hunting. I'm too particular, have to make some things myself.

double bull matrix here and its pretty good.. its a PITA to setup until its broken in though. Hubs are stiff at first. But once setup its very nice inside. I only use mine with my son though. 90% of the time I'm up a tree so I can see better.
