Abstract
A camouflage device for archery bows includes mounting blocks adapted to being affixed to the bow in spaced relationship. The mounting blocks define first and second sets of sockets adapted to receive a proximal end portion of a tubular support arm so as to establish an extended condition (wherein the arms are oriented generally transverse to the long axis of the bow), and a collapsed condition (wherein the arms are oriented in general alignment with the bow's long axis). A camouflage curtain is supported by and extends between the upper and lower ones of the support arms so as to provide a blind for the archer, but yet allow the archer to track game targets, for example. An elastic cord joins the pair of arms so as to bias the proximal ends thereof into positive seated relationship with a respective socket. The arms, moreover, preferably have a bowed configuration so as to allow the arms to rotate generally about their longitudinal axes between states which exert greater and lesser tension upon the camouflage curtain.
