To tie it down I actually made some stakes out of 1/4" steel rod. I cut them 16"-18" long, bent about 3" over to form an "L" shape, then welded a fender washer about an inch down from the top. I put the washer on so when the rods are pushed into the ground they make contact with the tie down loops around the blind.

God Bless,
