if you can afford it, go with an m2. otherwise the goosebuster or that mammoth big sean blind are both pretty big. i think garret has an FA blind and he is around 9 feet tall and weighs a metric f*>kton. just kidding big guy....only problem is that his blind doesn't fold up, so if you are not trailering or trucking into a field it would be a pain to carry

For a man your size. Id stay away from the m2. Its not that much bigger than a finisher. Id try to find a FA blind called "the legacy". I use to hunt with a guy that was 6'7" 350. This blind fit him perfect. They dont make them anymore. But theres a guy from montana that has one for sale on another website. If you would like his email shoot me or pm or email murray6236@yahoo.com.

I agree with dogknott....I am 6'5" and 260 lbs and hunt mainly out of a Ground Force. It is a little tight side to side but not bad. Length is the main problem for taller guys like us. Very nice blind but too short for us. Also have a Hunters Specialties Hitman and it is wider...I am not sure about the length but personally, I find it to be more comfortable than the GF

Forgot to mention that the Hitman doesn't fold up well at all like the GF so unless you have a trailer and/or truck, it wouldn't be a good choice as far as transportation is concerned

Yes the hitmans are nice also, I have 4 of them in my trailer. I am 6' 280lbs and its big enough for me. Might be alittle short 6' 5" though, my son is about 6' 2" and he has enough room though.
