Abstract:

A sportsman's game meat hanger having an elongated shank portion having a top end and a bottom end. An eye portion is formed adjacent the top end for securing one end of a rope thereto. A hook portion is formed on the bottom end of the shank portion and it is inserted into a portion of a game animal that has been shot. A pair of tie-off rods are secured to the rear side of the shank portion. In use, the free end of the rope is thrown over the limb of a tree and the game animal is hoisted to a desired height. The rope is then cleated on the rope tie-off rods and then secured with a half-hitch or other comparable simple knot. With the rope cleated the knot remains free from tension, allowing the knot to be easily untied. If a game bag is used then the free end of the rope can be tied around the top of the bag; enclosing and protecting the meat.
