An improved hunting device for use as a jacket and to assist in hauling game from the woods is disclosed. The device of the present invention is constructed by measuring and cutting a rectangular piece of carpet or other flexible, foldable material. The material is sized to fit the upper body down to waist level and an opening is cut in the center of the material to receive the head of the hunter. A length of rope is attached to one of the short sides of the rectangular material adjacent both outer ends thereof and the rope then extends on the underside of the material adjacent both long sides of the material along the length thereof. The rope then passes through a hole adjacent each outer end of the other short side of the material to the outerside of the material and a securing hook is attached to each of the two ends of the rope. In use, the hunter passes his arms between the rope and material on each long side thereof and inserts his head through the center opening. The lower front and rear portions of the material may then be drawn together to provide a jacket-like appearance. The hooks at the ends of the rope may be attached to a game animal to be hauled from the woods. The particular construction of the hunting jacket with the ropes positioned at waist level allows the body strength of the hunter to be used, rather than the hands and arms, and with the hands being left free to carry guns and other equipment.

A hunting device for use as an article of clothing for the upper body and having utility for use by a hunter in towing game from the woods, comprising: a sheet of flexible material in planar form with two opposing surfaces and having the general shape of a rectangle with two opposing short sides and two opposing long sides, said sheet material having an opening in the center portion thereof for insertion of the head and neck of the hunter; a length of rope or other cord-like material, said rope being secured along one surface adjacent one short side of said sheet material including both ends of said one short side and extending from both said ends along each long side of said rectangular sheet material on the same surface of said sheet material, said rope having no fixed attachment to said sheet material along said long sides of said sheet material, said rope passing through said sheet material from one surface to the other of said sheet material adjacent each end of the other short side of said sheet material so that one end of said rope extends outwardly from each end of said other short side, said rope and sheet material thus allowing the arms of the hunter to be easily passed between the rope and the sheet material adjacent each long side of said sheet material and allowing said opposing short sides of said sheet material to be drawn together at approximately the waist level of the hunter to provide a jacket or vest-type article of clothing in which the rope extends outwardly from the waist level of the hunter.
