Claims18
A game bag comprising a chamber defined by a shell having a top wall, a bottom wall, a rear wall, and opposing side walls that are all substantially planar, and a front wall, the front wall comprising a substantially planar lower section and an upper nose section projecting forward of the planar lower section, said shell further comprising a zippered opening extending through the top wall and rear wall, an upper mesh covered opening extending through the rear wall and providing a first airflow path through the rear wall, an upper flap adapted to selectively extend over and close the upper mesh covered opening, a lower mesh covered opening extending through the planar lower section of the front wall and providing a second airflow path through the front wall, a lower flap adapted to selectively extend over and close the lower mesh covered opening, and a bracket adapted to mount a circulating fan to the shell at a location such that when the fan is operating the fan causes air to flow along the first airflow path, the second airflow path, and within the chamber.
A game bag comprising a chamber defined by a shell having a top wall, a bottom wall, a rear wall, and opposing side walls that are all substantially planar, and a front wall, said shell further comprising a zippered opening extending through the top wall and rear wall, an upper mesh covered opening extending through the rear wall and providing a first airflow path through the rear wall, an upper flap adapted to selectively extend over and close the upper mesh covered opening, a lower mesh covered opening extending through a planar lower section of the front wall and providing a second airflow path through the front wall, a lower flap adapted to selectively extend over and close the lower mesh covered opening, and a bracket adapted to mount a circulating fan to the shell at a location such that when the fan is operating the fan causes air to flow along the first airflow path, the second airflow path, and within the chamber, wherein said bottom wall is lined with a mesh layer, and a plurality of drain holes extend through said bottom wall.
A game bag comprising a chamber defined by a shell having a top wall, a bottom wall, a rear wall and opposing side walls that are all substantially planar, and a front wall having a substantially planar lower section and an upper nose section projecting forward of the planar lower section, wherein said shell is made of a multi-layer construction comprising an outer layer of polyester, a middle layer comprising a fabric made of a plastic closed cell fiber, and an inner layer of a thin waterproof fabric, said shell further comprising a zippered opening extending through and along substantially an entire length of the top wall and rear wall, an upper mesh covered opening extending through the rear wall and providing a first airflow path through the rear wall, an upper flap adapted to selectively extend over and close the upper mesh covered opening, a lower mesh covered opening extending through the lower section of the front wall and providing a second airflow path through the rear wall, a lower flap adapted to selectively extend over and close the lower mesh covered opening, a plurality of drain holes extending through the bottom wall wherein the bottom wall is lined with a mesh layer, and a bracket adapted to mount a circulating fan to the shell at a location such that when a circulating fan attached to the bracket is operating the fan causes air to flow along the first airflow path, along the second airflow path and within the chamber.
