  • Patent number: 6015339
    Abstract: A clamping device for attachment to a wall, post or other vertical support and securing a game carcass such as a squirrel, in position to facilitate efficient skinning and dressing of the carcass. In a preferred embodiment the clamping device is characterized by an elongated, generally U-shaped clamp bracket terminated by a bracket mount flange on each end to facilitate mounting the clamp bracket to the support. A pair of spaced-apart leg notches and a central neck notch are provided in the upper edge of the clamp bracket for receiving the legs and neck, respectively, of the carcass, which leg notches initially receive the rear legs of the horizontal carcass. A clamp bar is pivotally mounted on the clamp bracket and a coiled latch spring provided on the clamp bar is stretched taut and caused to engage the clamp bracket to secure the clamp bar against the rear legs of the carcass and the carcass in the clamp bracket, as a knife is used to partially skin the carcass.
