Mesh material is presented for a hunting blind with a camouflage pattern printed on a first side and a second side with a color coating. The mesh material is partially transmissive such that a portion of incident radiation from an exterior of the hunting blind is reflected back into the exterior, a portion of incident radiation from an interior of the hunting blind is transmitted through the mesh material to the exterior and an intensity ratio of the reflected portion to the transmitted portion during daylight conditions is above a threshold value such that the exterior of the hunting blind is visible from the interior and the interior of the hunting blind is not visible from an exterior of the hunting blind. A hunting blind is also provided that includes a frame including frame members and panels of the mesh material attached to the frame members.

A waterfowl decoy carrier and blind system configured to hold a plurality of waterfowl decoys in a balanced, hands free manner for efficient transport to and from a desired hunting location. The carrier is uniquely configured to accommodate the irregular shape of the decoys radially about the hunter's midsection while supported by the hunter's shoulders. The waterfowl decoy carrier generally comprises a rectangular body having a top perimeter and a plurality of upward opening linearly aligned pockets. Each pocket is configured and sized to receive one or more waterfowl decoys. In an embodiment, one or more waterfowl decoy carriers can be used in combination to provide a visual blind barrier forming a waterfowl hunting blind system.

A hunting blind is integrated with a trailer to enable the trailer to be towed to a hunting site and used for hunting, without the need to remove the hunting blind from the trailer. The hunting blind also accommodates and conceals equipment such as an ATV or UTV. The blind includes two levels, with openings in each level, and may be configured to resemble a stack of hay bales.

A foldable shelter uses a hub assembly to easily expand into its final configuration with side supports used to stabilize the shelter. The foldable shelter includes a front wall, a first side wall, a second side wall, and a hub assembly. The hub assembly includes a hub and a plurality of rods extending from the hub to each corner of the front wall of the shelter. The hub assembly is configured to transition from a collapsed configuration to an expanded configuration.

A portable blind is provided. The blind includes a frame, wheel assembly, and hitch. The wheel assembly is configured to move between stowed and deployed configurations. In the deployed configuration, the wheels contact the ground and enable transport of the blind. In the stowed configuration, the wheels do not extend past the bottom of the frame of the blind, and thus the blind rests upon the ground. The hitch is also configured to move between stored and deployed configurations. In the deployed configuration, the hitch forms a “C” shape with its plurality of members, and in the stowed configuration the plurality of members are stacked on top of one another. A method of moving the wheel assembly and the hitch between their configurations is also provided.

Portable, collapsible, lightweight housing structure for outdoors, and a method of assembling, and using the same. The invention encompasses an apparatus for providing shelter for humans and animals, which is portable, collapsible, and easily transportable from location to location, and can be quickly assembled, and disassembled. The apparatus comprises of a tubular frame, where a flat housing panel is wrapped around the tubular frame, and a cover is secured to the top of the assembly to from the portable, collapsible, lightweight housing structure or the quick assembly hunting blind or hunting blind kit. The portable, collapsible apparatus, has a ceiling or roof, and wall or panels that are made of one or more layers of material, such as, corrugated material, plastic material, composite material, waterproof material, weatherproof material, rigid honeycomb board material, polyethylene material, polypropylene material. The inventive apparatus could also have an attachable or detachable base or floor.

A method and apparatus for hunting that enables hunters to remain concealed while still maneuvering with the blind constructed in an in-use configuration and without disturbing quarry. The hunting blind comprises a portable, collapsible, lightweight, pop-up frame enabling the gamesmen to gain closer proximity to small and large game while permitting movement during use without detection. When not in use, the frame of the hunting blind collapses into a compact, transportable configuration that slides into a carrying bag for easy transport. The hunting blind of the present invention offers 360 degrees of concealment, comfortably concealing two hunters. The blind comprises a cover adapted to swathe the frame and create a taut surface against which camouflage may be installed for concealment in a plurality of horizontal rows providing mechanisms for staggering the placement of camouflage on the cover to further enhance concealment.

Mesh material is presented for a hunting blind with a camouflage pattern printed on a first side and a second side with a color coating. The mesh material is partially transmissive such that a portion of incident radiation from an exterior of the hunting blind is reflected back into the exterior, a portion of incident radiation from an interior of the hunting blind is transmitted through the mesh material to the exterior and an intensity ratio of the reflected portion to the transmitted portion during daylight conditions is above a threshold value such that the exterior of the hunting blind is visible from the interior and the interior of the hunting blind is not visible from an exterior of the hunting blind. A hunting blind is also provided that includes a frame including frame members and panels of the mesh material attached to the frame members.

A base for supporting a hunting blind includes a plurality of outer frame members connected to one another to form an outer frame, at least one floor panel positioned on a top surface of the outer frame, and at least one of the floor panels defining at least one aperture to receive a storage bin. A plurality of support members may be configured to support the outer frame, the support members being configured for insertion into a ground surface. A height of each support member relative to the ground surface may be adjustable to provide a level position for the outer frame.

A waterfowl decoy carrier and blind system configured to hold a plurality of waterfowl decoys in a balanced, hands free manner for efficient transport to and from a desired hunting location. The carrier is uniquely configured to accommodate the irregular shape of the decoys radially about the hunter's midsection while supported by the hunter's shoulders. The waterfowl decoy carrier generally comprises a rectangular body having a top perimeter and a plurality of upward opening linearly aligned pockets. Each pocket is configured and sized to receive one or more waterfowl decoys. In an embodiment, one or more waterfowl decoy carriers can be used in combination to provide a visual blind barrier forming a waterfowl hunting blind system.
