A king-size umbrella in a camouflage pattern: at first glance not really innovative, until one finds out that it is possible to unscrew the handle and to hang the umbrella from a tree branch, protecting so the hunter from poor weather conditions – during a driven day or while stalking – but still enabling him to move without a risk of the barrel of his gun or rifle to touch any object. Very clever!

 



Claiming the high ground

This is a solid and safe high-seat for two hunters, offering a good view from a height of about 4,80 metres, and all this for a very competitive prize (159 €, plus shipping costs). Assembling it requires some creative minds, as there were no real instructions in the box, and one of the steel elements needed some additional drilling, but the overall result was more than satisfactory.
