Leave up for season. Take down after. Not to get in a brand war but the texas weather and heat take a toll on them.

Mine's been out since Aug. of 2012! If you get a Rhino blind you don't have to worry about the heat & sun. Mine's 3 years old & has been in the field for all but 3 months of the 3 years. It's a bit faded now but still kickin'!!!

Leave it out, unless you have cattle, then it can be destroyed.

I put mine up every year in September and take it down in January. Going on season #4 and it is still going strong! After it has been up a while the deer aren't as bothered by it.

I left one out a few weeks and squirrels chewed a bunch of holes in it.

I've never left mine out all year, but I've left them out for the entire season. Unless I'm testing different areas, I like to set it up and leave it until the end of the season.

Thanks for your input, I've been setting up and taking down on the wknd I hunt for the last couple yrs, but I'm gonna try leaving out through archery this yr. I've got it set up and brushed in really good, but I am kinda worried about the cows, mice, etc.
gonna hide out in the bottoms, where i hunted deer and turkey, i know that swamp like the back of my hand-Chris Knight
