depends on the blind, and how much you move. But more than likely yes.

I will never understand ducks. I can be totally hidden in my blind and they will flare. Other times I can have my truck backed up to the water and fishing and they drop right in. I think some ducks are more leary than others.

doesn't matter if it's face mask or paint, but use something and keep your head down.

http://www.texashuntingforum.com/forum/u...c_of_one#UNREADGo to this thread and look at the second picture. In the distance you can see the blind. In the blind you can see my brother's pumpkin head shining like a new moon. I can't stand face masks, I hate them. I don't like face paint either. I usually just hide my face in the blind material or tree or use whatever kind of stuff I am set up on. I wear glasses, they fog up with a face mask. Face paint is too hard to remove. I dip snuff and it is a pain in the butt trying to spit with a face mask.

I prefer NOT to use a blind. In my experience hugging up next to a tree is much more likely to bring ducks in.
ANd whether in a blind or not you are not welcome in my group UNLESS you put on a facemask or camo makeup. I prefer the makeup. B etween blowing the call and having to spit the damn facemask gets ripe pretty quick.
There is nothing worse than reaching into your kit bag before a hunt and realize you forgot to wash your facemask.
BTW the BEST camo makeup is the charred end of a wine cork.

The best way to remove camo makeup is to keep a few baby wipes in a ziploc baggie in your bag. It takes just a couple of those to clean you up pronto post hunt.

i aint into baby wipes or cold cream. I am 100 percent redneck and I have no intentions of carrying baby wipes or cold cream to the blind. There is just something way down inside that tells me it aint right.

I was raised to believe that the TRUE redneck way to do things is the EASIEST way possible by spending the least amount of money possible.
Putting on a little makeup in the duck blind does not threaten my masculinity one bit.
I cannot STAND a facemask. I wind up fighting that durn thing all morning.

I'm with GK because I like salty old dudes.

I like my face mask when it's cold. I don't wear it during early teal since they don't care anyway. I never have to adjust it or anything. It isn't too thick or itchy either.
Never tried paint. Don't have anything against it... I just don't want to bother with having to take it off. The mask doesn't bother me at all, keeps me warmer, and is easy on and off.
