You guys probably aren't going to believe this but this whole concept came to me in a dream back in the mid-'80s? I bought the reflective Mylar material and designed it very similar to the present design. I was going to name it "Mirroflage". I even paid $3,000. to have an attorney run a patent search on the idea. He found an outdoor writer from Bozeman, MT named Norm Strung had a patent on a reflective "shield" that was still valid for another seven? years. I just let the idea go because of the legalities. I probably should have pursued it later because the concept really worked well reflecting whatever ground cover was in front of it. I even toyed with the thought of presenting the idea to the military during Desert Storm where cover and trees were minimal.Oh well... another great idea I let slip by and went bowhunting instead. What an idiot. BW
