  • Patent number: 4706858
    Abstract: An improved hunting device for use as a jacket and to assist in hauling game from the woods is disclosed. The device of the present invention is constructed by measuring and cutting a rectangular piece of carpet or other flexible, foldable material. The material is sized to fit the upper body down to waist level and an opening is cut in the center of the material to receive the head of the hunter. A length of rope is attached to one of the short sides of the rectangular material adjacent both outer ends thereof and the rope then extends on the underside of the material adjacent both long sides of the material along the length thereof. The rope then passes through a hole adjacent each outer end of the other short side of the material to the outerside of the material and a securing hook is attached to each of the two ends of the rope. In use, the hunter passes his arms between the rope and material on each long side thereof and inserts his head through the center opening.
