Bow blind

Camouflage means for use on a compound bow that has a riser with a threaded hole to receive a threaded end of a stabilizer rod to hold the rod firmly so that it extends forward of the bow, the camouflage means comprising:

• a central block having a front surface with a threaded hole therein to receive the threaded end of the stabilizer rod to hold the stabilizer rod firmly so that it extends forward from the central block, the block also having a rear surface and a plurality of side sockets;
• a support rod rigidly attached to the block and extending from the rear surface thereof and comprising a threaded end to fit firmly into the threaded hole in the bow in place of a stabilizer rod to support the block in a fixed position forward of the bow;
• a plurality of ribs to fit snugly in the side sockets, the sockets being located so that the ribs radiate out in different directions from the block;
• and
• a camouflage cloth comprising corner pockets spaced according to the locations of the outer tips of the ribs in the side sockets whereby the ribs, when inserted in the corner pockets, extend the cloth outwardly in front of the bow and generally athwart the longitudinal direction of the support rod to prevent an animal ahead of the cloth from seeing the person using the bow.
