Abstract

A rotatable hunting blind providing a 360° field of vision about the blind with almost one-hundred percent concealment is disclosed. Construction of the blind on a circular frame and the type of exterior covering which shields the hunter from the vision of prey is discussed. The method of operation of the rotatable blind is discussed.

Claims

1. A rotatable hunting blind comprising:

a circular cover,

a base,

a rotation bracket, attached to said base,

a lower frame, having a first end and a second end, said first end attached to said rotation bracket,

a circular top attached to said second end of said lower frame wherein said base, rotation bracket, lower frame and circular top form an overall circular frame providing support for said circular cover such that said circular cover extends about said overall circular frame from said circular top to said base thereby providing the rotatable hunting blind.

2. The apparatus of claim 1 wherein said circular cover further comprises an upper section having a lower circumferential edge, a mid section having an upper and a lower circumferential edge and a lower section having an upper and a lower circumferential edge and wherein said top section extends from said circular top towards said base within the range of one quarter to one third of the distance between said circular top and said base, and wherein said mid section extends from beneath said upper section, joined at said lower circumferential edge of said upper section to said upper circumferential edge of said mid section, said mid section extending from said lower edge of said lower section to a point within the range of one third to one quarter of the distance from said base and being joined to said lower section at said upper circumferential edge to said lower circumferential edge of said mid section, said lower section extending to said base and wherein said lower circumferential edge of said lower section is in contact with said base.

3. The apparatus of claim 2 further comprising a shooting slot within said mid section and extending axially from said upper circumferential edge to said lower circumferential edge thereof.

4. The apparatus of claim 3 further comprising egress means incorporating said shooting slot and extending from said upper circumferential edge of said bottom section to said lower circumferential edge of said bottom section.

5. The apparatus of claim 4 further comprising means for closing said egress means.

6. The apparatus of claim 1 further comprising a stand and wherein said stand is attached to said base of said apparatus.

7. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein said upper section and said lower section are opaque and said mid section is translucent.

8. The apparatus of claim 2 wherein said upper section, said mid section, and said lower section are translucent.
