This thing is very well-built but it is huge. I am 5 foot 10 and with the carrying strap tightened down as tight as I can get it I can only get the blind about an inch off the ground when it's on my back. It is also very heavy. I do a lot of public land goose hunting where I have to carry this for a half mile or more and I wouldn't recommend it for that activity. If you have a trailer that you can pull back into whatever field you're hunting and are only moving the blind a few yards it is great. There is ton of room inside to the point that me 5 foot 10 210 pounds and my 80 pound bird dog can fit in it with comfort. I'm not saying I don't like it I'm saying that it's just too big for me to have to carry it an amount of distance. Maybe if I can sew some straps on it in a different spot where I can get it off the ground while it's on my shoulder it would be better.
