ABSTRACT:
A portable hunting stand which is adapted to be retro-fitted to a three wheeled motorcycle, ATV or the like for permanent operative association therewith may be deployed by a hunter or the like in a low profile ATV-transportable position, a cage position providing an enclosure, or a hunting position for seating the hunter in a secure elevated position above the terrain. A plurality of upwardly extending, rigid support stanchions operatively disposed generally at the vertices of the standard ATV rectangular deck support a chair support plate coupled to the stanchions. An associated foldable footrest may be deployed to provide a firm footing and to brace the elevated chair upon which the hunter may sit. A front stabilizer leg associated with the front of the chair provides a stabilizing connection to the chair support plate. Side and rear plate structure provides for conversion of the stand into an enclosure suitable in the cage position, for at least temporarily housing a hunting dog or the like or for storing or transporting game. The foot shelf is foldably coupled to the front stanchions and it may be deployed in either a horizontal orientation providing a foot support, or it may be folded vertically upwardly rearwardly into contact with the front stanchions to help provide an enclosure. A pair of rear support pedestals extend downwardly from the rear stanchions and terminate in suitable support plates which contact the ground to support the rear of the ATV to insure that the hunter, or other person seated within the elevated chair is securely braced.
