Abstract: A tree mounted hoist device for mounting a hoist to a tree facilitates lifting of a tree stand or the like. The device includes a bracket having a first section and a second section. The first section is configured for coupling to a tree wherein the second section defines a step extending from the tree. An elongated member has a first end and a second end. The first end is coupled to the bracket wherein the elongated member extends from the bracket. A pulley is coupled to the elongated member in spaced relationship to the first end whereby the pulley is positioned in laterally spaced relationship to the tree.

Abstract: A stand mountable weapon support assembly includes a base and a bracket attached to the base. The bracket couples the base to a tree stand. A post has a first end and a second end. The first end is pivotally coupled to the base and the post is positionable between a deployed position extending upwardly from the base or in a stored position lying on the base. A gun holder is attached to the post adjacent to the second end. A gun is supportable by the base and the post in an upright position.
