An elevated hunting box blind is essentially a box with a door, and between 1-4 windows. They are usually elevated between 12 and 20 feet off the ground, but heights can vary.
Benefits of Hunting from an elevated hunting box blind:
- Better view with the elevation
- Concealment from the deer or other animals being hunted
- Better containment or elimination of your scent with the elevation
- Protection from the cold and wet weather [so you can stay in the field longer]
- Minimizes any noise, particularly if you add carpet to the floor
- Allows you to hunt where you couldn’t hunt before such as open fields
- Allows you to video your hunt by be able to have the equipment next to you in the blind
- You can add a portable heating source for cold conditions
- The ability to have more than one person hunting together and yet minimizing movement and sound [especially if its children as its a big ask for them to remain motionless for hours!]
- Provides more movement, comfort and allows more equipment to be taken
- Can be camouflaged with limbs or camo netting
- Reduces the problems of bugs distracting you and causing you to make movements that may be seen by your game
