"Shoot through" Windows???

I've seen a lot of stuff on here about shooting through the mesh of a ground blind and how it doesn't affect arrow flight. Now let me tell you my experience.

I bought a Doghouse TSC and took it out to my range and tried shooting through the mesh. At 20 yards range, every single arrow struck at least five inches high, as high as seven inches in one case - on line but high. That was with field points. I won't be shooting at game through mesh any time soon.
Thanks
Sawyer

make a window

most ground blinds are set up to have a window. Some even have them all the way around. I would be a little worried about shooting through the material, and think you should adjust the blind with windows facing your shooting lanes.
