Spray snow doesn't stick to it worth a damn.

Another thing you will notice is that it fades very quickly. The yellow turns nearly white after some use, and it doesn't really blend in with corn stubble at all.

It does save some time, but to be honest I think you are better off getting to the field a half hour earlier (or putting someone to work with the job of stubbling blinds) than using this stuff. I cut most of it off of my blind. Where I am supposed to hunt where the red stuff matches is beyond me.

I use mostly the color that looks like corn stubble/wheat, the other 3 colors I use very sparingly, it will cut down on stubbling my half the time it takes to do a whole one in the field.......had my kw-1 for 3 years and the color has held up great with no issues. Just my 2cents, everyone has different opinions.

I've seen these Ghillie strips work in person on McMann's blinds and I have to say they blend in GREAT....I'll deff. be putting a set on one of my blinds this year for sure, if not all of them....
They look a little bright at first, but mud them up a little and through using them, they blend better and better...

Guess it's time to do some searching on google earth and try and find that field with windmills in the background! Thanks Kid.

I'll save you the google earth time, there about 100yrds from the house your staying in out there.
