In 2007, Keith and I set out to improve Double Bull's™ most popular ground blind. Our end result is the new Dark Horse™. The Dark Horse™ is a marriage of the industry changing T5 coupled with the viewing options of the Matrix ground blinds.
The Dark Horse™ allows you to square up the Matrix style viewing for a true 180 degree shooting radius while maintaining all of the stability
that made the T5 famous. We also changed the net system so that you can crack the top of the netting open for 'no net viewing'.The most notable change is the adoption of the new Ground Swat™ camo pattern. We have always been huge fans of wide open, non-situation specific camo patterns,
and when we ran across this one we knew it was a winner. Click here to see the old Predator pattern up against the new Ground Swat. During our field testing in 2007, it outperformed every other pattern we have tested. When you check out the photos below, you'll see why. Developed by stealing shapes straight from mother nature, Pattern Masters was able to produce a pattern that simply blends into more terrains than we thought possible. This pattern will undoubtedly help you be even more successful when hunting from the ground.-Brooks Johnson
The new Dark Horse™ features Primos® Double Bull's™ Silent Slide™ windows system which spans a full 180 degress across the front of the blind and adjusts from 1" to 20" vertically. You can "open" the window or cover it with shoot-through netting. The back half of the Dark Horse has a black interior to eliminate "profiling" and maximize concealment.
Four shooting ports and two viewing ports provide shooting and viewing to the rear without compromising concealment.
