Abstract:
A game blind includes a frame having a central opening sized to accommodate a user, a plurality of support members coupled to the frame, and a blind element secured to one of the mounting points. The frame is suspended above a ground surface by the plurality of support members, which allow a user to level the frame relative to the ground surface by adjusting the position of the support members relative to the frame. The game blind may be configured in an in-use position when hunting or observing wild game, or a collapsed position when transporting or storing the game blind. In the collapsed position, the blind element may interface with at least one of the support members, which secures the blind element to the frame.

Claim (Index 19):
A method of assembly for a game blind having a frame and through-hole opening disposed centrally in the frame, wherein the through-hole opening is configured to receive a user's feet, the game blind further comprising a base plate coupled to the frame and a plurality of through-holes, wherein each one of the plurality of through-holes is disposed in the base plate and extends parallel to an upper surface of the frame, the method of assembly comprising:\n positioning a lower end of each of a first support member, a second support member, and a third support member in contact with a ground surface by reconfiguring each of the first support member, the second support member, and the third support member from a collapsed position to an in-use position, wherein in the collapsed position each one of the first support member, the second support member, and the third support member is received within one of the plurality of through-holes, and wherein in the in-use position each one of the first support member, the second support member, and the third support member is substantially perpendicular to the upper surface, wherein each of the first support member, the second support member, and the third support member are coupled to the frame proximate to a perimeter of the frame; adjusting a position of each of the first support member, the second support member, and the third support member relative to the frame to level the frame; and mounting a blind element to at least one of a plurality of mounting points disposed on the perimeter of the frame, wherein the blind element is configured to at least partially conceal the user positioned in the opening.
