Put The Hide Tight To The Ditch.....Use Hide Pole To Build The Hide And Pull The Net Tight...Put Local Vegatation On The Hide...Dont Move And Dont Look Up When Birds Approching...Wear Camo And A Facemask And Make Sure Your DEcoys Are Out Far Enough And Set Up Ok! Hope This Helps:rolleyes:!

Your Best Bet Is To Wear The Hat Yeah Or If You Could Get Your Hands On A Camo Face mask Wear That..If Your Sitting Down On A Seat Or Stool Or Whatever They Wont See You Through The Net No Need For Anything Over The Top As Long As Your Camoed Up They Wont See You...Golden Rule Is Just Dont Move Or Look Up Until There In Range And Your Going To Shoot....As Regards The Gun Dont Move It Or Touch It Until Your Taking A Shot!
