Animal game call

A game call includes a first resonant member. A second resonant member is telescopically operable within the first resonant member between a plurality of telescopic positions. A harmonic carriage has a body and a reed assembly. The harmonic carriage is slidably operable within the second resonant member. The first and second resonant members and the harmonic carriage are slidably operable relative to one another to adjust a resonant length defined between the reed assembly and a resonating end of the first resonant member.

Telescopic game call having adjustable resonant length

A pole saw apparatus includes a saw blade, a pole, and a tubular adapter connecting the saw blade to the pole. The adapter includes an obround blade-receiving end that stably telescopingly engage sides of the blade-receiving end, with bolts fixing the blade on the adapter. The adapter also includes a pole-engaging end that is cylindrically shaped to telescopingly engage the anchoring end of the pole. A friction clamp includes a transverse shaft extending through the pole, the shaft being shaped to slide into longitudinal slots in the pole-engaging end of the adapter and then rotate into circumferential slots where it is not longitudinally removable. A rotatable cam handle on the clamp is manipulated to create circumferential friction to hold (or release) the adapter on the pole. The blade, adapter and pole align along a common centerline for robust and balanced use.

Modular tools with detachable coupling

A game call capable of providing a variety of sounds produced by wild game is provided. The game call includes a first end cap, a second end cap, and a collapsible member coupled to the first end cap and the second end cap wherein the collapsible member can be extended and retracted to simulate a rustling foliage sound. The game call may also include a clip member coupled to the first end cap wherein the clip member may be configured to simulate a branch breaking sound. The game call may still additionally include one or more knob members coupled to the first end cap and/or the second end cap where the one or more knob members may be configured to be scraped against a surface to simulate an antler rubbing sound.

Light pole saw

A pole saw includes a long handle with end adapter, a blade-carrying component pivoted to the end adapter for movement between an extended use position and a handle-adjacent storage position, and a saw blade fixed to the blade-carrying component. The end adapter and holding component are cast aluminum for strength and light weight, and are pivoted together about an offset axis so that the blade and blade-carrying component are positioned adjacent the handle in a partially protected position when collapsed for storage. A folding lock mechanism includes an anchor that engages a saw-holding bolt on the blade-carrying component, and a wing nut that can be tightened to secure the sheath on the blade.

Foldable-storable pole saw

A pole saw includes a long handle with cast end adapter, a cast saw-holding component pivoted to the end adapter for movement between an extended use position and a handle-adjacent storage position, and a saw blade pivoted to the holding component for movement between a blade-use position and a blade-protected position. The end adapter and holding component are cast aluminum for strength and light weight, and are pivoted together about an offset axis so that the blade and blade-holding component are positioned adjacent the handle in a partially protected position that is very compact; thus, no disassembly or separate tools are required. A folding lock mechanism includes a hook and pressure pad that cooperate for secure locking in the extended use position. An adjustable set screw eliminates blade looseness when in the use position.

The various embodiments disclosed and pictured illustrate a ladder module for use in ascending or descending generally cylindrical, vertically oriented structures and a securement system for positioning various objects on a generally cylindrical, vertically oriented structure. One embodiment of the ladder module comprises a spine and at least two steps pivotally mounted to the spine. A step mounting bracket base may be affixed to a step mounting bracket bolt, and each step may in turn be pivotally mounted to the step mounting bracket base. The step mounting bracket base and the tree bracket may be secured to the spine with the step mounting bracket bolt. The ladder module may be mounted to a tree or similar structure using a flexible member such as a rope, wherein one end of the flexible member is secured to the spine and the flexible member is engageable with the securement structure.

Foldable saw

A tree stand for hunting includes a frame constructed to stably engage a tree trunk in an elevated position, a seat pivoted to the frame, and a back support pivotally supported by a link mechanism to a telescoping upright of the frame above the seat. Vertical and angular adjustment of the back support allows the hunter to adjust the back support for optimal ergonomic lumbar support and for user preference. Further, the back support and seat can be pivotally adjusted to provide a partial-standing perched position for the hunter. Also, the tree stand can be folded flat for storage and transport.

Tree stand with back support

A cam-type door latch assembly comprises a handle and an arm assembly terminating in a finger-like cam and pivotal to bring the cam into engagement with a conventional locking pin assembly. The arm assembly is selectively adjustable for lengthening or shortening the arm assembly, thereby adjusting the contact force between the cam and the locking pin and, consequently, the door closing force. The arm assembly comprises a sleeve enclosing a wedge nut and a cam arm having offsetting inclined faces which are tightened against each other with a threaded connector to lock the wedge nut and cam arm in position in the sleeve when the cam has been properly adjusted relative to the locking pin.
