Abstract: A portable ground blind device having a sheet of material combined with a frame assembly. The frame assembly includes a connector member pivotally combined with one or more leg support members for supporting the device on the ground surface and one or more arm members for supporting a top portion of the sheet. The sheet may include sleeves or casings adapted to receive portions of the support members and arm members to combine the sheet with the frame. The sheet covers the leg support members to form a three dimensional covered pocket under the frame. The arm members may include pivot joints for adjusting a first arm member portion relative to a second arm member portion, each portion can be separately adjusted relative to the frame assembly. A gun rest is adjustably combined with the connector member.

Abstract: An animal call which generally includes a housing having a first portion rotatably combined with a second portion. An opening is formed in a wall of the housing between a mouthpiece and an outlet end. A reed is disposed within the opening and is adapted to vibrate in response to passing air. The reed is combined with the first housing portion. A helical member is formed inside the second housing portion. An adjustment member has a helical engagement member that engages the helical member. The adjustment member includes an adjustment arm in frictional engagement with the reed. The helical member acts as an auger to move the adjustment member along the length of the reed as the second housing portion is rotated relative to the first housing portion.

Abstract: An animal call device commonly referred to as a grunt tube. The grunt tube generally includes a housing, a reed, and an adjustment arm adapted to engage the reed. The adjustment arm is combined with a first portion of the grunt tube which may be one of either the outlet end, the housing, or the mouthpiece. The reed is combined with a second portion of the grunt tube which may be a different one of either the outlet end, the housing, or the mouthpiece. The first portion of the grunt tube moves relative to the second portion of the grunt tube thereby causing the adjustment arm to move relative to the reed and engage the reed at different locations to change the sound produced by the grunt tube.

Abstract: An animal call commonly referred to as a grunt tube. The animal call generally includes an elongated housing, a reed, an expandable member, and an adjustment member. The housing includes a mouthpiece end that allows air to enter the tubular member, an outlet end that emits sounds, and an opening in a wall of the tubular member between the mouthpiece end and the outlet end. The reed vibrates in response to passing air and is disposed within the housing near the mouthpiece end and the opening. An adjustment member has an adjustment arm which contacts the reed. A user can modify the sounds emanating from the outlet end by changing the position of the adjustment arm along the length of the reed to change the vibrational characteristics of the reed. The expandable member is made from a flexible and elastic material thereby allowing it to have a first position wherein it is retracted and a second position where it is extended.

Abstract: A game call device generally comprising a pan assembly which includes a frame combined with a striking plate and a sounding board. The striking plate has an external surface adapted to be struck by a striking member. The sounding board has at least two vibrational regions separated by one or more openings. In use, the striking member is manually slid over the striking surface to cause the sounding board vibrational regions to vibrate simulating the sounds of turkeys and other game birds.

Abstract: An article of eyewear includes an eyeglass frame having an integrally formed camera enclosure, an imaging sensor disposed within the camera enclosure, and a single button to control on, off, record on, and record off functions of the article of eyewear. The eyeglass frame may have a camouflage pattern. A system for recording video includes an eyeglass frame having an integrally formed camera enclosure, an imaging sensor disposed within the camera enclosure, and a wireless transceiver disposed within the eyeglass frame, and a single button to control on, off, record on, and record off functions of the article of eyewear. A method of documenting a hunt using an article of eyewear is provided.

Abstract: The disclose describes an improved holder for an archery bow which includes two arms pivotally attached to one another and a sliding support arm for resisting bending moments due to the weight of the bow being held at a distance away from a tree. The support arm and one of the arms each feature a separate fastener for securing the holder to a tree.

Abstract: A bow support for holding an archery bow relative to a support structure is provided. The bow support includes a support structure mount for mounting the bow support to the support structure. The support structure when mounted to the support structure may be removed from the rest of the bow support.

Abstract: A game call having a mouthpiece with an internal latex diaphragm and secured to said mouthpiece is a diaphragm plunger which is operable by pressing an artificial tongue-like pliable section into contacting with the diaphragm, thereby changing the pitch of the sound produced.

Abstract: A turkey call striker is provided for producing sounds suitable to a hunter in hunting turkeys. The turkey call striker includes a striker shaft, a compression fitting, a first body, and a second body. The compression fitting is moveable along the shaft and the first and second bodies secure the compression fitting to the shaft. The location of the compression fitting and corresponding members determines the sound produced from the turkey call striker when struck across a striker plate.

Abstract: An article of eyewear includes an eyeglass frame having an integrally formed camera enclosure, and an imaging sensor disposed within the camera enclosure. The eyeglass frame may have a camouflage pattern. A system for recording video includes an eyeglass frame having an integrally formed camera enclosure, an imaging sensor disposed within the camera enclosure, and a wireless transceiver disposed within the eyeglass frame. A method of documenting a hunt using an article of eyewear is provided. The method includes providing the article of eyewear, the article of eyewear comprising (a) an eyeglass frame having an integrally formed camera enclosure, (b) an imaging sensor disposed within the camera enclosure, and (c) wherein the eyeglass frame having a camouflage pattern. The method further includes activating a video recording functionality of the article of eyewear during the hunt and video recording the hunt using the article of eyewear.
