Gear Check: New Hunting Blind Designed for Ground-Based Hunters

Browning Camping & Hunting Blinds has developed a new hunting blind for bowhunters and other hunters who want maneuverability, silence and maximum concealment.

The new-for-2021 Browning Envy ground blind addresses the needs of ground-based hunters.

Featuring an 82-inch (6 feet, 10 inches) center height and 74-inch shooting width, the Envy allows compound shooters to stand when taking the shot and the tall center height means traditional bowhunters can shoot from a seated position without limb impact.

Incorporated into the Browning Envy blind are silent-operation features such as a Silent-Trac window system that permits the windows to be raised or lowered quietly, while also providing adjustability to meet changing concealment and shooting position needs. The QuickConnect silent-entry door system uses magnets along the door seam for silent entry and exit, and no-fumble hooks to ensure the door remains closed.

Durable 600D polyester fabric comprises the Envy’s wall and window curtain construction while shoot-through mesh is used across the 180-degree window openings. Support comes from fiberglass poles connected to aluminum hubs featuring engineered tips and pins. In addition to the 180-degree window placement, the Envy incorporates two camera window ports for still photography or video applications and a 360-degree ground skirt for concealment and minimal light intrusion, and to help keep scent in.

Available in Realtree EXCAPE™ and Mossy Oak® Country DNA®, the Browning Envy blind also includes a bow hanger, deluxe stakes with tie-downs, brush loops, and four gear pockets. Overall weight is 23 pounds.
