Hey guys how would you hide in a cut bean field? The farmer proablly wont let us dig down

What we have done in beans/alfalfa/anything very short, is take advantage of fencelines, ditches, ridges, lowspots in field, etc. If there is none of this, We usually like to keep the blinds really close together and try and find as many mean plants as you can, if none, really brown/tan ditchgrass that would match the field ok. Its gonna be tough but not impossible. IMO what has worked best for us is to keep the blinds out of where the geese are gonna be focusing. Keep flagging from ur blinds at a minimum if birds are close. Dont call when the birds are on top of you.

The best thing I have found is keep your blind well "mudded" I know it is hard to find mud this time of year but if you want to make some it will help you when hunting beans. Also try and find as much soybean stems as possible even if it takes 15 min. The one thing I do when hunting soybeans is make my laydown blind as low as possible. Even if this mean not putting it together. Make it almost like a sleeping bag blind.

The stuff james has said was all good info as well.

Hope this help.

We just lay on the ground and use an old canvas tarp like a blanket.
