A rotary auger support stand for mounting and removably holding a articles or devices upright on the ground. The stand includes an upright rod with a helical coil or flights forming an auger base having a point at the lower distal end to be fixedly and removably screwed into the ground to support the stand in an upright position. The top end of the rod forming the stand body defines an S-shaped loop configured, sized and shaped and disposed at a selected angle to support an article thereon. The top adapter is capable of supporting a decorative element, sign, target, or other element. An S-shaped handle is formed integrally within the support shaft longitudinal member extending from the auger.

A feeder stand including a rotary ground auger and base holds a feeder above the ground. An upright elongated rod defines a stand supported by an auger having helical coils removably screwed into the ground. A platform such as a round disc, or wire mesh platform is supported on the top distal end of the rod. At least two opposing legs extend perpendicular to the vertical elongated rod and auger forming a base. The distal end of selected opposing legs are bent or angled upward perpendicular from the ground forming handles for rotating the auger into the ground. The portion of the legs extending outward normal to the elongated support pole provides a base bearing against the ground for increased lateral support.

In some embodiments, a bow stand comprises a first body portion comprising a first cavity. A second body portion is moveable with respect to the first body portion. The second body portion comprises a second cavity. A third body portion is moveable with respect to the first body portion and comprises a third cavity. The first cavity, the second cavity and the third cavity form an engagement cavity arranged to engage a frame of an archery bow.

A bow holder is vertically and horizontally adjustable for holding limbs of an archery bow during hunting. A securement mechanism couples a fixed limb of the bow holder to the tree stand. A vertically adjustable limb is coupled to the fixed limb. A series of rungs hold variable position o-rings in position for side-to-side securement of the bow to the bow holder.

A weapon holder includes a stock support, a limb, and a fore end support. The stock support defines a recessed area sized to receive a stock of a weapon therein. The limb is coupled to a first end of the stock support and extends away from the stock support at an angle relative to the stock support. The stock support and the limb together define a weapon receiving area. The limb includes an offset portion that extends away from the weapon receiving area. The fore end support is coupled to a distal end of the limb.

Stocks for aimable devices are provided. In one aspect, stock has a body mechanically associated with the aimable device and movable to determine an aiming axis of the aimable device, a shoulder mount positioned proximate to one end of the body, a firing grip positioned apart from the shoulder mount along a length of the body; a support leg having a mounting end pivotably mounted to the body between the firing grip and an end of the body opposite from the shoulder mount and having a foot end movable between a first range of positions and a second range of positions and a receiver located between the mounting of the support leg to the body and the firing grip and adapted to releasably hold the support leg in the first range of positions wherein the at least one support leg provides a grippable forestock.

An angle-adjustable stirrup assembly includes a connector, a stirrup, and a locking element. The connector includes a plate connected to a crossbow, a sleeve formed on a face of the plate, and recesses in an external face of the sleeve. The stirrup is pivotally connected to the sleeve and includes a first section, a second section in parallel to the first section, a slot in the first section, and a tread formed on the second section. The locking element includes an end pivotally connected to the stirrup and another end formed with a boss for insertion in a selected one of the recesses via the slot to keep the stirrup in a selected one of several angles relative to the connector.

A shooting rest for different weapons provides ends that are offset from the central portion of the rest to provide a space that accommodates a portion of the weapon being used with the rest. The shooting rest can be used with one or two supports that engage the weapon being used with the rest. Each support includes pliable arms that can be configured by the user to a custom shape. Each arm has an inner member that can be bent with no or little spring back to allow the user to shape the arm to a desired configuration. When in use, the entire rest can be tilted about its main support. A support assembly includes an adjustable arm that carries the shooting rest from the top of a monopod that is anchored to allow repositionable use without interference with the hunter's legs.
