My son has one that folds into a pouch about the size of a seat cushion and you literally throw it to set it up. I will ask the brand.

Dawg, That sounds like what I'm looking for.......something easy to carry and quick to set up.

There are quite a few clones, with better windows than the one I got... still, they are useful.

Could access the link, but it did have another interesting concept available. Not that easy to carry, but it seems easy to erect.

I've stopped using blinds and wear a leaf-suit. It allows me more flexibility to position myself and move if I need.

That is the one I was talking about. Actually stays put pretty well when anchored by the stakes. We usually set it near a tree and tie it off to a branch too.
