    Did you go with the hunting buddy because of the silent start feature ?

    I think it was Peavy Mart that I seen had these, same size as the Hunting Buddy but the fan, led light and USB charge ports all run on the 20v dewalt lithium battery, $250 I think.

    Same as a buddy heater, with a dewalt name on it, and a light in the handle.

    Play the wind then you'll be ok. They'll scent you before the propane.

    Propane doesn't smell when it's burned.......

    Propane gives off water and carbon monoxide (or is it dioxide?) when it burns, nothing else... it's late lol

    You'll never be dry in a propane heated blind, keep that in mind......

    Your breath is the #1 producer of scent because of the warm air apparently

    Cam, i respectfully disagree - if deer are moving, sit sit sit. Youll rarely outsmart a whitetail that not in rut
    Took me years to figure that out, and my success rate skyrocketed

    Guess it depends on the area. I always still hunted in the hills. Walk slow, post up on high points and watch the fence lines. I’m not talking about walking all day, just stillhunting and moving from spot to spot. Like anything, tactics are dependant on area and pressure.
