    For some reason I am having a hard time with my new hub style blind when I am trying to put it up. And when I take it down. It is very difficult to exapand, I have tried windows open and closed. Anyone have an idea on what I am doing wrong?

    I usually try to get a running start… just kidding They take some getting used to… on the setup, I try to pop the top hub first, then pop out the walls. For the takedown, I start with the top first, then pop in the walls. I think my blinds have gotten easier after they have been setup for awhile. The material must stretch a bit?

    With my DB blind, I alway pop a side wall out first (when setting up) and then the next would be the roof. From there the other sides. It did take awhile to break it in and not be so stiff. Make sure your door zipper is shut. Hope this helps.

    I broke on pole when I first got mine…I usually do one side frist then the top and the rest of the sides open right up…taking down I pop out the top first and the rest fold right in…I feel your pain…nothing like tryin to set up in the dark and tryin to be quiet and it wont set up…good luck but like stated it seems to get easier the more times its set up…oh ya watch the fingers near the hubs when setting up too …Jay

    BESOX, I’m not sure what style blind you have, but if you go to http://www.coverthunting.com or simply click on the Covert ad to the right, we have an instructional video of how to set up and take down a blind. They all basically work the same way so give it a look! Hopefully that will help you with your blind.
